  • monetization
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with players expressing frustration over the prevalence of ads, particularly on mobile, where "playable ads" can disrupt gameplay. While a one-time fee of 1.19€ can remove most ads, some reward ads remain, leading to dissatisfaction among users who prefer a completely ad-free experience.

    • “The balance between free content and paid options is well done, making it accessible for all players.”
    • “What drags it 1-star down on mobile are the 'playable ads' = you are not just watching short videos but are force-fed hefty downloads of games as ads.”

    • “I would much rather have the option to buy the game and play it without ads.”
