The monetization of the game is heavily criticized, with users labeling it as a cash grab due to the developers' questionable history, the use of fake reviews, and an unreasonably high price of $17 for a product perceived as low quality. Additionally, the game's inclusion in daily indie game bundles further undermines its value.
- “The status of this game as nothing but an asset flip cash grab is cemented by the developers' prior history of serial infringement, the sheer number of fake or compromised Steam accounts they used to write fake reviews, the laughable $17 price tag for this garbage, and the way they dumped it into daily indie game bundles.”
- “The monetization strategy feels exploitative, with constant prompts to spend more money on in-game purchases that don't enhance the experience.”
