The monetization strategy of the game has drawn mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the prevalence of ads, particularly after initial gameplay. While some appreciate the option to watch ads for rewards, others feel that the game increasingly pushes players towards mandatory ads or microtransactions to progress, leading to a grindy experience. Additionally, issues with ad functionality, such as freezing or failing to provide promised rewards, have further soured the experience for many users.
“I did buy a package which came with no ads.”
“I like this game not just because of we are aline we do quest and we can upgrade ourselves and it is not wifi or data game and no ads i hope every one love it too 👍👍👍😄”
“There are no ads, and microtransactions aren't in your face.”
“Was good until..... was really enjoying this game and then I hit level 10, now 75% of the ads I hit, which you use to get in-game currency, freeze the game when you get out of the ad and don't give the rewards, though I assume the devs still get the ad revenue from the click.”
“I just had my 'oh.' moment and the game is just a cynical cash grab to me.”
“The forced ads have ruined this game. I have had it for quite a long time and the money-hungry structure that it now has makes the game almost unplayable. I have spent money on it when it was a decent game, but now I have no interest in playing it and will probably uninstall. I highly recommend looking at other options.”

The game is widely criticized for its excessive grinding, which many players find tedious and unfulfilling, especially in the later stages. While some appreciate the clear progression and the option to play for free, the slow pace and reliance on ads or microtransactions to advance have led to frustration and a sense of monotony. Overall, the grinding aspect detracts significantly from the enjoyment, making it feel more like a chore than a rewarding experience.
“Be warned, there is a lot of grinding in the game, and you won't have the satisfaction of having an 'ending' for beating the last boss.”
“Unfortunately, it is extremely grindy and progress is way too slow to feel meaningful.”
“The grinding becomes more tedious than challenging, and while I understand the money grabs, for the love of all that is holy, there's a limit.”

The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating the smooth controls and fun graphics, but expressing frustration over the heavy reliance on ads and microtransactions that disrupt the experience. While some find the core gameplay loop engaging, others criticize it for becoming repetitive and grindy, often requiring players to watch ads to progress effectively. Overall, the game shows potential but suffers from balance issues and a lack of depth in gameplay mechanics.
“I enjoy the gameplay for the type of game it is; fun graphics and smooth controls.”
“The core gameplay is quite fun, but this is the sort of game where you'll get much more rewards from watching ads than actually playing the game.”
“Gameplay and upgrade pacing is fair, the option to watch ads doesn't impede the game at all.”
“The game mechanics are horrible; they pretty much force you to watch ad after ad or pay real money to get the 20 different resources to level up or to beat the hostile enemies, which are ridiculous. They pretty much hit you and you're dead, though at first I admit there's not many.”
“Gameplay gets repetitive quickly.”
“After about 5 minutes, the gameplay is so tediously repetitive that there's just no point in playing.”

The game's story is criticized for its lack of depth and engaging content, with many players expressing frustration over the repetitive and grind-heavy nature of quests. Users report that after initial enjoyment, they encounter numerous bugs that cause quests to disappear, making progression nearly impossible, and feel that the reliance on microtransactions detracts from the overall experience. Overall, while the game has potential, it suffers from a significant lack of meaningful story development and quest variety, leaving players feeling stuck and unfulfilled.
“I really like this game and I've consistently played it for months, but twice in the game you complete new missions to unlock new worlds and I'm pretty sure it's never going to be updated to have something new.”
“It would be nice if there were more quests and more areas to unlock or anything to look forward to really.. after you get to level 13, there's no new objective other than maxing out skills and the last area that unlocks after all that grinding is disappointingly small.”
“Wish they would have more story elements like the first half of the game, and a way to convert resources late game (spears, tusks, eggs, barrels, etc).”
“It's such a shame that the missions are so tediously difficult with many microtransactions involved.”
“The extreme grind masks fundamental problems with lack of content and storyline, or goals of any kind.”
“I am now at a point where progress is nearly impossible, and it seems like the developers are just stalling while they come up with new dead-end plot points.”

“$99.00 a year!!!...my cats are even laughing 🤣...as am I.”
“Funny, people can walk through walls but barrels are unattainable.”
“Hilarious levels of copyright infringement.”
“The special items you need spawn so slowly that it's not funny.”
