Copying a response I made to a similar comment:

I, too was not able to reproduce the same result again.

When I tried to do the same search again, I had one column more dedicated to non ad space, namely, showing the description of the game. Dont know how I got that particular spread of ads galore at that particular moment.

My version of android is, indeed, an older one, and my region is India, I suppose all these factor into what I see when I search for stuff.
