It still works for me on Android (Bluestacks) even during gold "sales". Every other day I can get about 30-36 gold watching videos. Not sure why it works for some but not others. iOS has been dead since the exploit Gree doesn't know how to address so they shut it off. I guess that is one way of addressing the issue. Might be related to ads available for your region of the world <shrug>. Northeast USA here. But free gold is still alive as of now ... for some.
