The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, who report a shift from optional ads to excessive forced ads as they progress, particularly after the initial levels. Many players express frustration over the frequency of ads, which disrupt gameplay and often lead to glitches, even after purchasing ad-free options. While some appreciate the initial optional ads for rewards, the overwhelming presence of mandatory ads has led to a decline in enjoyment and overall ratings.
“Fun game, but I recommend avoiding any monthly purchases as I still encounter a lot of ads despite claims of no ads.”
“The game claims there are no ads available right now, but I was forced to watch 12 ads in a row.”
“Seemingly, they delay these mandatory ads to try and get you to like the game before they start bombarding you for their cash grab.”
“I really don't appreciate when a game forcefully pushes ads every few minutes; if not for the bombardment of ads, the game would have been a nice chill game to play.”
“At this point, there is no game; it's just watching ads.”

The game's story is engaging initially, but players express frustration with a lack of quests and progression after defeating key enemies, such as the dragon and T-Rex. Many report reaching maximum levels without being able to complete essential missions or obtain final evolution stones due to glitches and insufficient content. Overall, while the narrative starts strong, it quickly becomes stagnant, leaving players feeling unsatisfied and eager for updates.
“Game is good and can be played offline; it has a good story too.”
“Please update the game; I already completed all my quests and my level is maxed. I want to open the next season or access the upcoming part of this game.”
“Good game, but quests stop around level 7 and you can't progress further to get evolution stones or open any more areas.”
“I've reached level 25 and it's saying I've maxed out my level, though there is still a gem I've got to collect which I am unable to because of a glitch. It says there's going to be a chapter 2 coming soon, but I'm unable to complete this mission itself as the chest won't open.”
“All my hard work is in vain. I can't find the last stone. I want to see ancient power in my dragon. I killed the dragon and also the dragon king, and now I'm at max level. I wasted a lot of time just to satisfy my curiosity, and in the end, I can't find the last stone.”
“Please update the game. I've already done all my quests and my level is maxed out. I want to open the next season or access the coming soon part of this game.”

The game suffers from numerous stability issues, including frequent glitches that hinder gameplay, such as inaccessible areas, freezing screens, and problems with the upgrade menu. While players find the game enjoyable and addictive, the persistent bugs significantly detract from the overall experience, leading some to consider uninstalling if not addressed. Overall, the game's stability is a major concern that needs urgent attention.
“The only issue I really have is it glitches and I can't access the spots I have open.”
“Currently level 24 and have all but the last stone as game glitches out and won't let me get the last stone even though I've now beaten the dragon 2 times and still had nothing.”
“Glitches constantly, and will have entire areas greyed out and unaccessible.”

The gameplay is generally described as simple and addictive, with a fun loop and optional ads that feel rewarding. However, players express frustration over a lack of content, with limited challenges and excessive ads detracting from the experience. Many reviewers call for updates to enhance gameplay and address issues like slow progression and incomplete mechanics.
“It's a shame too, I really enjoyed the simple gameplay loop and optional ads for bonuses that felt worth my time.”
“Very addictive gameplay, but after reaching a certain point it gets stale and the timer respawn isn't quick enough for the amount we need to level up.”
“Needs an update for more gameplay!”
“So all in all, the game mechanics are lagging.”
“Even the core plot/mechanic is to beat 8 challenges for runes, but the game only has 5... so you all got stoned and forgot to finish your job?”
“It’s a simple yet fun game, but I uninstalled it as it was just ad over ad constantly rather than gameplay. If it was just ads for eggs/boosts that you click, that would be fine.”

Players express frustration with the grinding aspect of the game, noting that extensive resource farming—often requiring hours of repetitive gameplay—fails to yield significant progress, particularly in challenging final areas. Despite efforts to upgrade and hatch powerful minions, many feel stuck and unable to advance.
“Then probably another 5 hours of just running in circles, farming resources to upgrade, and I still couldn't beat anything in the final area.”
“I've hatched all the epic minions and am grinding lava T-Rex.”
