    • “Amazing graphics and mechanics.”

  • monetization
    59 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has received significant criticism, with many players expressing frustration over the reliance on ads and the restrictive stage pass system that limits gameplay unless players either watch ads or make in-app purchases. Users report that the ad system is often unreliable, with ads not appearing when needed, leading to a frustrating experience. While some appreciate the option to play for free through ads, the overall sentiment suggests that the monetization approach detracts from the enjoyment of the game, making it feel pay-to-win and overly reliant on advertisements.

    • “The in-app purchase of buying the full game also justifies and I really support it.”
    • “I really liked this game and I also made some in-app purchases in it, but as much as I loved this game, there were some little things that destroyed the experience, like having a fixed camera. I should be able to turn the camera, and the developer should have made this game able to run at 60 fps. The gameplay area should also be larger so we can move around more. I hope the developer can fix all these issues as soon as possible in their update, as this game has a lot of potential.”
    • “I waited 3 days but there are no ads to play.”
    • “Which means you could watch 5 ads and potentially not get a chance to play the game at all.”
    • “This game has horrible game mechanics where you need to use so-called stage passes to play every single level, which you can obtain by watching ads. Unfortunately, the possibility of acquiring even a single one is rare as you progress through the game, making it just a waste of time and data.”
    • “Your stage pass system is so stupid; I uninstalled a very good addictive game just because you keep making me watch ads to get a stage pass.”

Overall, while there are fun elements, significant improvements are needed for a more engaging replay experience.
