The monetization strategy of the game has received significant criticism, with players expressing frustration over the excessive reliance on ads to earn in-game currency (gems) necessary for progression. Many users report that the game forces them to watch numerous ads to evolve characters or complete quests, leading to a negative gameplay experience. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as overly aggressive, detracting from the enjoyment of the game.
- “It's like Pokémon when it comes to the types and almost no ads.”
- “Half the quests are to make in-app purchases.”
- “Would rate it higher but it is very difficult to play since a lot of the things in the game require gems to get and there isn't really an easy way to get the gems besides watching ads, and even then it requires 50 gems to evolve the dinosaurs in the first place.”
- “Ridiculous amount of ads; can't play longer than 30 seconds without ads being forced on you. You need gems to progress in the game, but you can only get 8 per ad, meaning that you need 5 ads just to evolve your dinosaur once.”
- “Worse game ever, full of ads and you need to pay to win.”
