The monetization aspect of the app has received mixed reviews, with many users expressing frustration over the frequency and intrusiveness of ads. While some appreciate the short duration of ads and the option to watch them for hints, a significant number of players desire a paid option to remove ads entirely, citing them as a major distraction from the coloring experience. Overall, the consensus indicates that while the app offers enjoyable content, the excessive ads detract from user satisfaction.
“Good game, no ads at all! Love this game; you only need to watch ads when you need help, and that's the only thing you need to watch ads for. Nothing else! I like how it's not like the other art games you see. I downloaded two more art games for comparison, and unlike the other games, there are absolutely no ads in this game. Don't believe me? Then download this game yourself and prove me wrong!”
“I love this app because it is relaxing and there are no ads, and I love the different pictures.”
“Glad this app has no in-game purchases and you don't have to unlock stuff.”
“The only complaint is there are too many ads!”
“I would give it 5 stars if there was an option to remove ads.”
“I love this game but hate all the ads.”
