The monetization aspect of the game is heavily criticized due to an overwhelming number of ads, with many players reporting ads appearing every few seconds, significantly disrupting gameplay. While some users suggest turning off Wi-Fi to avoid ads, the general consensus is that the frequency and intrusiveness of ads detract from the overall enjoyment of the game, leading to frustration and a desire for a paid ad-free option. Despite the game's potential and fun mechanics, the excessive ads have resulted in a negative impact on user experience and ratings.
- “This is a really great game, but there are a lot of ads, so I would recommend buying the no ads option for £4.99. It really helps a lot, so overall, a really great game.”
