The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming presence of forced advertisements that interrupt gameplay. Many players express frustration over the frequency and intrusiveness of ads, which detracts from their overall enjoyment, despite some appreciation for optional ads that offer rewards. The lack of an option to pay for an ad-free experience has led to calls for a more balanced approach to monetization, as excessive ads have prompted some users to uninstall the game altogether.

- “You spend more time watching ads than actual game time.”
- “I've already spent money in the game, but now these random ads interrupt the game and there isn't even an option to stop them or buy out of them.”
