The monetization strategy of the game heavily relies on forced advertisements, with players frequently reporting that they spend more time watching ads than actually playing. Many users express frustration over the intrusive nature of these ads, which often disrupt gameplay and can lead to crashes or loss of rewards. While some players appreciate the option to watch ads for bonuses, the overwhelming presence of mandatory ads has led to a negative reception, with many considering it a cash grab rather than a balanced gaming experience.
- “Really like the game, bought the no ads and some extra gems.”
- “Very good game, no ads, but if you want some ads to get money or something, then you watch ads. The money to buy stations isn't really a lot, so it makes it easier to upgrade your place.”
- “There are no ads that you are forced to watch every three seconds; ads are optional though.”
- “The forced ads ruined the game for me; as an idle tycoon, it was okay, but I will not play games that have ads pop up involuntarily. If I want to see an ad, I will watch one of the boosters' videos for a reward.”
- “You spend more time watching ads than you do playing the game. Everything you do or any meaningful gain in this game is funneled through ads.”
- “This game is incredibly broken and solely built to push ads and microtransactions. The gameplay is fun once you get past the ads, but my playing time shouldn't be wholly taken up by watching ads.”
