monetization
8 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe monetization strategy of this game has been criticized for featuring intrusive pop-up ads and misleadingly presenting itself as a full game when it is actually a demo or advertisement for a mobile app. Players are frustrated by the deceptive marketing tactics that prioritize profit over genuine gaming experiences, as well as the imposition of in-game purchases after a brief initial play. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as exploitative and detrimental to the gaming community.
“It's an advertisement/demo for a Unity-based mobile app that's been dumped on Steam as a cash grab.”
“While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and, in some ways, harmful.”
“The game isn't free; you can play a little, then the developer slaps you with a demand for in-game purchases to keep playing.”
