Additionally, technical issues, such as ads not counting towards quest completion, further exacerbate the dissatisfaction with the story progression.

- “Maybe have quests to unlock new sections of the town.”

Overall, the game is seen as fun but could benefit from reducing the grind or offering alternative ways to earn resources.
- “It's a good game, not too complicated or hard, and it isn't too grindy. My main issue is that when you finish enough waves and unlock a chest, the only way to get it is to watch an ad. You have to watch it or you won't get your well-earned reward at all.”
