The monetization aspect of the game has been widely criticized for being heavily focused on aggressive microtransactions and misleading advertisements. Many players feel that the in-game purchases are exorbitantly priced, making it difficult to compete without spending significant amounts of money, which leads to accusations of the game being a cash grab. Additionally, the gameplay does not match the promotional content, further frustrating users who feel deceived by the marketing tactics.

“You can still do well in this game even without the in-app purchases.”
“Nice game, no ads.”
“The amount of ads and icons to buy in-game items is ridiculous; pricing for items is astronomical, very difficult to grow if you are not in the race to buy things with the other players.”
“Complete and utter garbage; I mean I know that ads and posters may not be 100% representative of the actual gameplay, but man, this game completely misleads you. It is nothing, not even a tiny bit, as advertised.”
“In-app purchases are ridiculously expensive, and then you have to worry about them cheating you out of those purchases without any real compensation. These people that run this app are a bunch of greedy thieves.”

“This game is horrible with game glitches, login issues, and the worst support service I have ever encountered in gaming.”

The reviews highlight that grinding is a central aspect of the game, often requiring significant time or financial investment to progress. Many players find the experience tedious and frustrating, particularly due to the imbalance between high-level and low-level players, which hampers fair competition and progression. While some enjoy the addictive nature of the game, the overwhelming sentiment is a desire for reduced grind and better balance in gameplay.
“The entire game is centered around aircraft carriers with other warships being almost totally irrelevant; massive amounts of grinding and money are needed to be half decent.”
“The game is playable, a good way to kill some time... they do push cashing a bit... the progression is horrid, unless you spend an obscene amount, or have been playing from the beginning.... too many high levels farming the lower levels makes it almost impossible to play and progress.”
“Accomplishments are possible by grinding, but it will take forever to get anything significant unless you have a lot of luck in events.”
