The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback from users, primarily due to the excessive number of ads that interrupt gameplay. Many players report that ads appear after nearly every action, leading to frustration and a significant loss of progress when ads freeze or fail to load.

- “Slim to no ads unless you choose to watch them.”
- “The game is good, no ads that I've run into and it's not forcing microtransactions down your throat.”
- “There are microtransactions to get more in-game currency and power-ups, but it's still possible to play and enjoy the game without having to spend any real money.”
- “Forced ads on players ruins a great game completely.”
- “The game is great, but the amount of ads is overwhelming and makes it frustrating to play.”

The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with many players enjoying the soundtrack and sound effects, particularly the hip-hop and battle music. However, numerous users report persistent glitches, such as music cutting off unexpectedly, failing to save sound settings, and issues with audio resuming after ads.

- “The gameplay and graphics are pleasant, and it has a good soundtrack.”
- “Enjoying the 90s rap soundtracks and that the auctioneer sounds like K Rhino, all around not bad.”
- “Doesn't work on my OnePlus 8 Pro. It gives me a black background with some icons and music playing, without any possible ways to interact with the game. I tried to reinstall, but there was no difference. I relaunched the app 8 times, and sometimes it gives me half an intro video, then goes black. If I manage to click skip, I get what I suppose is the side of a garage, on a quarter of the screen in the upper left side, then it freezes with music playing again. It simply doesn't work.”
- “The only problem I have with this game is that the sound and music turn off every time I play. The sound works just after it loads, but when I go to an auction, everything turns off and there's no sound at all.”
- “The music and sound effects cut off despite being set as on after every ad. It gets fixed with a reboot, but it's very annoying.”

You have no option to wait for them to end, and sometimes during critical moments, like selecting items to shop and earn money, an ad pops up that won't close. This forces you to restart the game, losing all your money, powers, and energy. Additionally, during missions, the game fails to record your performance, requiring you to redo them.”
