Players express frustration with the grinding aspect of the game, noting that it can feel overwhelming and time-consuming, often requiring excessive effort to progress. The presence of pay-to-skip options for grinding is criticized, as it undermines the gameplay experience and offers minimal cosmetic rewards that do not significantly enhance the game.
- “You'll need a second life for grinding.”
- “I bring this up because you can be playing a game, doing your best, putting effort into winning, and one of these guys can just show up and start farming you.”
- “It would be fine if it was cosmetic only, but you can literally pay to skip the grinding with no other use than to buy clothing options that are clunky and unnoticeable at best, with the top-down perspective. You can color your hair or wear a balaclava and glasses; that's about it.”

The monetization model features microtransactions typical of free games, but notably lacks a premium currency, allowing players to unlock everything through gameplay. This approach is viewed positively, as it enhances the overall experience without paywalls, though the game could benefit from increased advertising and a larger player base.
- “While there are microtransactions (which is to be expected from most free games), there is no kind of premium currency or anything you can't unlock simply by playing for long enough, which is a plus for these types of games.”
