The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback due to the excessive number of ads, which many players find intrusive and disruptive to gameplay. Despite the option to pay for ad removal, numerous users report that ads persist even after purchasing this feature, leading to frustration and a diminished gaming experience. Overall, while players understand the need for ads to support a free game, the frequency and nature of these ads have made the game nearly unplayable for many.
“Great game but I would like a way to pay for no ads like I'd pay $4.99 for no ads in a great game like this. Other than that, it's amazing. I'd like it if you all would add more per click and more expensive options to buy.”
“Absolutely love this game! Little to no ads, and it's pretty straightforward.”
“I understand that this game is free to play with no in-game purchasables with real money, so I understand that you have to make money some way, but it is every other click.”
“The game is fun, but the ads are so bad it's unplayable. If you try to close a company, you can close for 30% return or 100% return.”
“I paid $9.99 for 'disable ads forever' but I still see so many ads. The ads are the biggest turn off to this game.”
“The ads are ridiculous. You end up wasting more time watching ads than playing the game.”

The game's stability is frequently criticized, with users reporting numerous glitches and bugs that hinder gameplay, such as issues with stock transactions, inaccurate earnings, and problems with in-game purchases. While players enjoy the concept and potential of the game, the persistent technical issues, including crashes and unresponsive ads, significantly detract from the overall experience. Many reviewers express that the game could be highly enjoyable if these stability problems were addressed.
“Since the update, buying and selling stocks (the biggest draw of the game) is buggy as hell.”
“However, minor glitches eventually became a major glitch that would not allow me to purchase items (cars, yachts, etc.) I was already practically complete aside from stocks and items within a month, so that glitch was the 'critical event' resulting in uninstalling the app.”
“This could be a good game but it's buggy, was also crashing on me and without ads to speed up the process, it takes forever.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious and lacking excitement, often resorting to overnight AFK grinding to accumulate wealth. The repetitive tasks, such as counting money and purchasing properties individually, detract from the overall enjoyment, leading to a perception that the game primarily serves as a means for developers to generate ad revenue rather than providing engaging gameplay. Suggestions for improvements include allowing bulk purchases and introducing loan systems to alleviate the monotony.
“It's just farming with no excitement, progress, or motivation to get further in the game.”
“Clicking to make money is tedious.”
“Counting out exactly 200 and 100 is tedious for building the space co.”

Overall, the consensus is that the game could benefit from a more developed narrative structure.
“I want in-app purchases, short story line different locations.”
“There isn't really a story or anything, but honestly, I'm enjoying it more than any of the other life or business simulators out there.”
“Not sure if it's totally lame, but it's not getting anywhere so far and there is no storyline.”
“4 and not 5 stars because the ad for this game leads a person to believe it's story animated and instead it's more like a paged logbook.”
“I guess I am asking for a 'short story' line or plot.”
