Players express frustration with the grinding required to earn gems, which are necessary for restoring lives and using cheat codes. This repetitive effort can detract from the enjoyment of the game, leading some to feel compelled to step away rather than continue the grind.
- “They'll cost you 500 gems every time, so you'll find yourself grinding for gems just to be able to afford to consistently restore your 2 or 3 available lives after hitting a tricky segment, so you can keep progressing in a level without starting all the way over.”
- “However, when I caught myself grinding for gems just to be able to afford enough cheat codes to have a shot at beating the second level, I had to walk away.”
