The monetization is heavily criticized for its excessive and intrusive ads, making progression slow and frustrating due to reliance on watching multiple ads to earn gems needed for gameplay advancement. Many users find the frequency of ads disruptive and feel the game pressures players toward in-app purchases, detracting from the overall enjoyment.
- “It's like Pokémon when it comes to the types and has almost no ads.”
- “Would rate it higher but it is very difficult to play since many game features require gems, which are hard to get except by watching ads. Even then, it requires 50 gems just to evolve the dinosaurs.”
- “Ridiculous amount of ads. Can't play longer than 30 seconds without ads being forced on you. You need gems to progress, but you only get 8 gems per ad, meaning you need to watch 5 ads just to evolve your dinosaur once.”
- “Half the quests are designed to push in-app purchases.”
