The monetization strategy of the game heavily relies on advertisements, leading to widespread frustration among players due to the excessive frequency and interruption of ads during gameplay. Many users report that ads appear after nearly every action, significantly detracting from the overall gaming experience and causing gameplay to lag or freeze. While some players acknowledge the necessity of ads for a free game, the overwhelming consensus is that the current implementation is excessive and negatively impacts enjoyment.
“Relaxing music, no ads, and I can let my son play when we're at the pediatrician's office without worrying about him buying something online or playing violent games.”
“It's pleasant, the music is amazing, and there are absolutely no ads!”
“No ads so far.”
“The ads are unbearable (an ad for every level plus when you leave the game for .2 seconds) and the game is incredibly glitchy, the most recent glitch being a ball going right into another ball and freezing the whole game.”
“I played over twenty hours and watched thousands of ads, one every ten seconds it feels like, and then when you get close to your goals the games get stupid cheap. When you finally do finish a goal, it's worth 85 cents and you can't cash out.”
“The game is simple but they make you watch an ad after every round, so if you like watching ad after ad every round and wasting over half your play time, then this is the ad game to try to play.”
