The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback due to the excessive number of ads, which many players find intrusive and frustrating.

Overall, the consensus is that the frequency and length of ads significantly detract from the gameplay experience, leading many to consider uninstalling the game despite its enjoyable mechanics.

grinding

Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious, particularly due to frequent ads that interrupt gameplay, which can be inappropriate for younger audiences. While some understand the need for ads in a free version, many express a desire for a paid option that reduces these interruptions.
- “Terribly tedious business indeed.”
- “My 2 year old son loves watching me play this, but then a thirty second ad comes every time, and some have bad imagery for a 2-year-old (like a game of a fish being chased by a shark and drowning in lava, etc.), so I turn the phone away for half a minute. It's just tedious after every try. I understand it for free, but I will buy the game once the ads are reduced in the paid version.”
