The monetization strategy of the game has received significant criticism due to the overwhelming number of ads, particularly unskippable 30-second ads that appear after nearly every level, which disrupts gameplay and frustrates players. Many users feel that the $10 fee to remove ads is excessive, especially given the frequency and intrusiveness of the advertisements, which often cover essential gameplay elements. While some players appreciate the option to earn bonuses through watching ads, the overall sentiment leans towards a desire for fewer ads and a more balanced approach to monetization.
