Its an ad because its a third party. Pinball is at worst bloat, but it at least doesn't ask for money. If MS was really recommending apps then why not Chrome or LibreOffice? Its clear candy crush compensate somehow on top of not being a competitor. Thus its an ad.
Pinball was also third party, it was a free demo of Full Tilt Pinball. I still think it wasn't as bad but I would say it still counts as an ad
Well I stand corrected.
