Many users feel deceived as the gameplay does not match the promotional content, leading to frustration over the frequent and often unskippable ads that detract from the overall experience.

grinding

Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious and repetitive, often feeling misled by promotional content that suggests more engaging gameplay.

- “Used to be decent, but they push so much 'buy this', 'buy that' that it's tedious.”
- “It's okay... I downloaded this because of the ad showing the post with the body parts and cleaning them, and that was a mini-game. It was literally only one time you get to play the mini-game. It's fun at first, but the merging becomes more tedious after a while. It's not bad, just gets kind of boring after a while.”
- “It's pay-to-win, but the amount of time to recharge anything makes this game tedious.”
