monetization
404 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of ads that interrupt gameplay. Many players report spending more time watching ads than actually playing, with frequent mandatory ads after levels and during gameplay, leading to a frustrating experience. While some users appreciate the option to watch ads for bonuses, the sheer volume and length of these ads have led to calls for a more balanced approach, with many expressing a desire for a one-time purchase option to remove ads entirely.
“I'm someone that doesn't have an issue paying for games I enjoy, but when you can't get support and then all your progress related to in-app purchases is lost, I can't justify spending on a developer's products.”
“Best of all, there's no ads!”
“The game is great, but I have made a few in-app purchases and haven't received them, which is very disappointing.”
“You just have to keep watching ads like you're on an endless treadmill, as the power of your shooting gets more and more impotent.”
“I literally find myself spending more time waiting out ads, many of them not optional, than I do playing.”
“This is the 'ad' for you... what was to be an enjoyable bit of nostalgia turns into an ad at almost every stage of this 'game'. I understand ads keep games free, but with so many ads, it feels like we should be paid to download it.”
