Yeah, 10 USDs is a bit much for a runner type of game. I feel it could get much more sales if they dropped it down to $5

I'm sure that the game will be discounted now and then. iOS-discounts of a high priced app are better for the ranking than if the app is medium priced to begin with.

I wouldn't wonder if the first discount from $9.99 to $6.99 or $4.99 is already in the christmas week, which is normally the week with the highest revenue of the AppStore.

Much more people will buy a "Super Mario Run" discounted from $9.99 to $4.99 than an undiscounted "Super Mario Run" for a base price of $4.99.

It sounds like the pricing on the game is a strategic move them. People will probably be more likely to jump on it, feeling they're getting a good deal on the game.
