    The monetization aspect of the game has been overwhelmingly criticized for its excessive and intrusive advertising. Players report spending significantly more time watching ads—often 30 seconds of gameplay followed by 1-2 minutes of ads—than actually playing the game, leading to frustration and a diminished gaming experience. Even those who pay for an ad-free version still encounter numerous ads, which many users describe as a deceptive practice by the developers. Overall, the game's monetization strategy appears to prioritize ad revenue over player enjoyment, resulting in a largely negative reception.

    • “Paid for no ads, still have to watch ads to do just about anything.”
    • “Paid for no ads, still getting ads.”
    • “I tolerated as much as I could because I like games like this, but the time spent looking at ads does not equate to fun.”
    • “For every level you play, you have to endure twice the amount of time in ads at the minimum or up to 5 times or more spent staring at an ad before you even get to the next level.”

Overall, the gameplay is described as basic, unoriginal, and lacking in depth, making it difficult for players to engage meaningfully with the content.
