The story aspect of the game is criticized for being virtually nonexistent, with players feeling they are merely completing repetitive missions dictated by an ad-driven structure. The narrative is reduced to a series of tasks with no character development or engaging plot, leading to frustration over the overwhelming presence of ads that disrupt gameplay and hinder progression. Overall, the game lacks depth and meaningful storytelling, making it feel like a tedious chore rather than an immersive experience.
“Usual story.”
“Same story.”
“This is just Donut County if it had no textures, no story, no characters (not the hole or the big red guy), no nothing. It's just a game where you collect bullets and guns, and that's it.”
“The man from the ads sends you on mission after mission, which in reality you're just doing the agency's dirty work.”
“It's designed for watching ads; if you don't want to see ads, then it's impossible to complete the mission.”

The grinding aspect of the game is heavily criticized, with players noting that it is nearly impossible to progress without grinding levels multiple times or watching numerous ads. Many reviews describe the game as an "ad farm" and a "cash grab," emphasizing the tedious nature of grinding and the lack of meaningful progress due to frequent resets after each level. Overall, the experience is seen as frustrating and designed primarily to generate ad revenue rather than provide enjoyable gameplay.
“Ads are egregious and the game is designed to literally be impossible to finish a level without grinding it 20+ times for the gold or watching ads for boosts.”
“This is an absolute garbage game with the first few levels specifically designed to be impossible without spending money or grinding.”
“Uch, dead grinding and resetting every level makes it garbage. Not only that, but no work was put into it; maybe actually make a game rather than an ad spam and a cash grab. This is a horrid sight to play.”

Players express significant emotional frustration with the game due to technical issues such as lag, glitches, and unresponsive controls, which detract from the overall enjoyment. The disparity in rewards between normal and bonus levels, along with the frequent interruptions from ads, contributes to a sense of disappointment and dissatisfaction. Overall, the emotional impact is largely negative, stemming from a lack of engagement and a feeling of being overwhelmed by the game's mechanics.
“Bonus levels are pathetic as they get like 2000 gold while normal levels get 14,000 to 24,000 or more. The bonus level felt like a failure due to the emotional damage from being beaten too badly.”
“You touch more cautiously on the buttons than grabbing the ammo because at every upgrade, or if you didn't touch 'no thanks' (even if you touch), voila, there is an ad.”
“It was so laggy, and even when I was touching the screen, my character would not move. It was just an overall unpleasant experience.”
