The easy way (changing Region in General settings) doesn’t work.

The hard way (changing region in the iTunes/Apple Store) might work, but it’s a huge hassle to re-enter all the bank info every time I switch. The Apple Store only connects to real bank accounts with real addresses in the country of the store. It is sometimes worth the effort in order to get an app which is available in most of the world but not in China. Even if that would be a work-around for this problem, it is not worth 10-15 minutes of going thru the menus and changing the store location every day just to play A8. I actually used to play each day during breaks or while commuting. To do that now, I’d have to set my store location to a western country, then switch back to China every time I want to do sth related to living here. Maybe if I could switch Apple stores in 1 minute, but it really takes at least 10 minutes. Too much trouble.

Whoever is responsible (GL or some “nanny state” worker) must be happy my A8 playing time is now zero.
