    The monetization strategy primarily relies on ads, which users find to be a mixed experience; while some appreciate the short and non-intrusive nature of the ads, others are frustrated by the length and frequency, particularly the 30-second ads that disrupt gameplay. Despite these complaints, many players acknowledge the necessity of ads for a free game and have found ways to mitigate their annoyance. Overall, the balance between ad presence and gameplay enjoyment remains a contentious point among users.

    • “It is a pity that this good puzzle app is spoiled by the number of 30-second ads.”
    • “But the ads are annoyingly lengthy and I abhor long, time-consuming ads. I'd rather be playing the game than watching this ad that actually takes up more time to watch than it does to play the game!”
    • “Great but some of the ads are unstoppable.”
