The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of ads that interrupt gameplay. Many players report that ads appear excessively, often after every level or action, making the game feel more like a platform for advertisements than an enjoyable experience. Additionally, concerns have been raised about the appropriateness of some ads, with many users expressing discomfort over explicit content aimed at younger audiences. Overall, while some players acknowledge the need for ads in free games, the consensus is that the frequency and nature of the ads severely detract from the overall enjoyment of the game.
“For my opinion, the game is really great and addictive, but not the ads, but I really recommend to add on the game is that you can go back to one of the levels.”
“It is a very good game I really love it, it is very fun, no ads but we skip levels but very nice.”
“Just play offline then boom no ads.”
“If you can't make a game without filling it with ads, then you might as well not make a game because once it's full of ads, it's practically unplayable.”
“You will be spending more time watching ads than playing the game.”
“The game is just lazy and feels like a cash grab.”
