Update (3/20/10 – 8:28pm): As of today (3/20), We Rule as been released to the world in the AppStore. GodFinger will probably be a few days later. Asuming that it waits the same amount of time that We Rule did before going world wide.
Is there a free game that has been released in a country that is your own? Want to be able to download it without having to actually move there?
AppAdvice.com has an article that describes how to create an iTunes account for a country that you don’t live in so that you can do just that.
For myself, I have been dying to get my hands on GodFinger and We Rule from ngmoco:), but they have released it in Canada first before releasing it to the rest of the world. So I followed the instructions in the article and created an account using an address in Canada. I now have a valid account for Canada and have downloaded GodFinger and We Rule and have started playing both.
The trick is to us Google Maps to find a valid address. You will need to look up a postal code and an area code or valid phone number format for where ever you want to get an account for. Its really not all that hard. It only took me about 5 minutes to get all the info I needed in order to create the account.
Just make sure to select “None” for a credit card since its pretty likely that you don’t have a valid credit card for the region that you are creating an account for. You’ll be up and running in no time!
