The monetization strategy of this game has drawn significant criticism from users, who report an overwhelming number of ads that disrupt gameplay. Players frequently encounter lengthy, unskippable ads after nearly every level, often spending more time watching ads than actually playing. While some users suggest turning off internet access to avoid ads, many feel that the excessive advertising detracts from the overall enjoyment and potential of the game, leading to frustration and uninstalls.
“If you play offline, there are no ads, but levels are always the same difficulty, not progressing.”
“So, either watch the ads or pay a couple of dollars for no ads.”
“Honestly, the gameplay is fun enough that I may have considered paying for no ads.”
“The levels are shorter to play than to watch the ads.”
“I'm convinced this game was just thrown together to push advertisements into everyone's face.”
“You literally spend more time watching ads than actually playing.”

The gameplay is generally described as simple and enjoyable, but it is severely hampered by an overwhelming number of ads, often resulting in players spending more time watching advertisements than actually playing. Many reviewers note that the levels are short and repetitive, lacking in variation and challenge, which diminishes the overall experience. While the mechanics have potential, the excessive ad interruptions make the game feel more like an ad delivery system than a cohesive gaming experience.
“The gameplay itself is quite fun, but there are far too many ads which you cannot skip in between each level.”
“The gameplay is nice (it's the actual game from the frustrating ad that brought you here), but the game overall gets boring quickly: the levels are very short, and there's no challenge in picking the best path, as the options are almost always of the +1/+100 or x2/x6 kind.”
“It gets more than 1 star because when you actually get to play it, the gameplay is pretty fun.”
“Each level takes about 10-15 seconds to complete and there's an ad after every level and an ad banner at the bottom during gameplay.”
“15 seconds of gameplay for 30+ seconds of ads, half of them open up the Play Store automatically.”
“The gameplay is dull, it's full of ads, the reward system makes no sense, it's full of ads, and it's full of ads.”

The game's story is criticized for being virtually nonexistent, with players quickly completing missions and feeling that the side missions lack purpose. Many reviewers express frustration over the repetitive nature of the gameplay and the overwhelming frequency of ads, which detracts from any potential narrative experience. Overall, the game is seen as unfinished and lacking depth, with a call for more engaging content and a cohesive storyline.
“I feel that this game has big potential if you tone down the ad frequency, add more variation in the levels, create an overarching story, introduce a competitive element, and last but not least, add more game mechanics.”
“I like games that are not 'pay to win,' are beatable in a reasonable amount of time, and tell a story.”
“However, it lacks depth and could be more interesting if it had things like quests and leaderboards.”
“Edit: this game is unfinished, there is no end... after you complete all the missions and buy all the skins (easily done in a day), the game just keeps generating random levels to try to keep you occupied.”
“There is no story though.”
“The story can be finished in no time (after less than an hour the map is cleared, I have a lot of gems and I have nothing to buy with them).”

“Graphics are good, concept is nice and fun.”
“After trying out this game, I was really disappointed with the graphics, the concept, quality, and lack of background music.”
