The game's monetization heavily relies on frequent, often intrusive ads that disrupt gameplay, including ads appearing mid-play and after nearly every move, which frustrates many users. While some acknowledge ads are necessary for a free game and can be skipped or are short, the overwhelming volume, forced viewing, and lack of a reliable ad-free purchase option significantly detract from the experience. Users frequently express a desire for fewer ads, better ad timing, and an option to pay to remove ads, as the current implementation often makes the game nearly unplayable.
- “As long as the ad-free option is no more than $5, I would 100% pay for no ads in this game.”
- “I even purchased no ads, which is rare, and really like the no ads experience; it's so much fun!”
- “Good if no ads.”
- “You get to play for 1 minute then watch 2 minutes worth of ads. If an ad kicks off while the ball is bouncing, the game isn't saved, and you have to start over. Often the ads will reset your game when you try to return from the commercial.”
- “The game has way too many ads that pop up in the middle of gameplay, interrupting play and making it frustrating or impossible to enjoy.”
- “Forced ads make you click through and don't let you continue unless you download something. These ads are extremely annoying and feel like a scam to both players and ad companies.”

The game is frequently criticized for stability issues, especially freezing and glitches occurring at higher levels (around level 150-300+), causing loss of progress and frustration. Ads often trigger freezes or unwanted redirects, further impacting smooth gameplay. While some users report minimal issues or none at all, many find the glitches and freezes severely disrupt the overall experience.
- “No glitches, you can back out of the app or answer a phone call/text without losing your progress.”
- “No glitches, fluid gameplay.”
- “No bugs, no glitches, I reached level 218 with no problems.”
- “You'll spend so much time getting to the higher levels, where it will actually start paying decently, and the game glitches so hard that you can't tell which pieces are where and it's a guaranteed loss.”
- “Game crash and freezes at or just above 200 made it to 409 froze restart over and it does the same thing at 200+.”
- “Starts stuttering massively by 30 seconds in, then just freezes completely at the first ad break and never unfreezes.”

- “It's a beautiful hidden gem of a game; I think it could be bigger than Tetris with better graphics and some music!”
- “I love ball bounce, watching the ball like in a song sequence.”
- “Bring back memories of past games of Rickacha; except the game of the past sounded like musical.”
- “If you're listening to a book or music from your phone as you play, it interrupts it every time.”
- “Pair that with the game stopping any music I play when an ad ends, and this is becoming a headache.”
- “The game forcibly pauses music after every ad, which gets old fast; it would be better without the ads and pausing.”

Grinding in the game is generally seen as simple and addictive, suitable for earning in-game currency or real rewards, though some find it tedious, monotonous, and occasionally confusing. Overall, it serves well for consistent farming but may not appeal to everyone due to its repetitive nature.
- “Word to the wise, don't waste your time, vision, and cell storage on this tedious nonsense, even if offered on a semi-real money making app.”
- “They seem easy and tedious; maybe it is tedious, but it's a a little difficult to figure out exactly how to advance—several possible ways but only one correct way. The game other than that is fun, addicting, and an instant classic.”
