Did I say I want them to be banned from Appstore?
Where?

Concept of Lite version and in-app purchase was discussed here before.
This type of app's behaviour was not acceptable before. Apple said, that if button says "Create new puzzle", it should create new puzzle, not produce alert saying "To get this, buy full app" and do nothing.

Is it hard to understand?

Even if the screenshot IS from the full version, and not the lite version -- who cares? Where I'd agree with you that they are crossing the line is if they put a screenshot from an entirely different game. That would be a problem.

I think you should let it go, the severity of their actions is so minor, it makes you look strange for wanting to pursue them for it.

Seriously, softak. There is so much sh$t going on in appstore: devs bully other devs, devs making false claims and having competitors removed from appstore, spamming, boob-spamming, fake reviews, totally deceptive descriptions and screenshots, etc. etc. Trying to punish this dev is like trying to punish a person who walks on red light during air bombing.

And no, Apple didn't change its policy, because one of my apps got rejected because of that. So probably reviewer just missed it. But again, it's a FREE app, so you didn't like the way they try to make $1, so just delete the app and leave a review..
