    31 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Monetization in the game relies heavily on ads, with many players frustrated by frequent and sometimes forced ads, especially interrupting timed activities. While some appreciate optional ads for rewards and the ability to remove ads via purchase, others find the volume and intrusiveness of advertisements detract from the overall experience. Issues such as ad-related freezing and misleading ad UI have also been reported, impacting enjoyment despite the game's charm.

    • “There's seemingly no way to earn gems other than watching ads or sharing, which means the island size cap was immediate.”
    • “The ads constantly freeze the game, forcing me to exit; this has been a constant issue for two days, despite having a new phone and good connection.”
    • “There's way too many ads, like an unreasonable amount; I've seen an ad after every single time I toss my bait, which is very disappointing.”
  • music
