Hi everyone.

I was looking at this game after someone recommended it to me, but when I went to install I noticed this permission request:

  • Phone callsread phone state and identity
    Allows the application to access the phone features of the device. An application with this permission can determine the phone number and serial number of this phone, whether a call is active, the number that call is connected to and the like.
Does that seem strange to anyone else? Why would this particular game need that permission?

Here's the app I'm talking about if anyone hasn't heard of it:
