The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the excessive number and length of ads, which disrupt gameplay and create a frustrating experience. Many players express dissatisfaction with the inability to permanently remove ads without a subscription, and some report that the ads are often inappropriate or irrelevant. While some users appreciate the option to earn coins through watching ads, the overwhelming presence of advertisements has led to numerous uninstalls and negative reviews, indicating that the monetization approach may detract from overall enjoyment of the game.
- “I love this game; no ads to interrupt, providing a fair chance of excelling.”
- “No ads while playing the game, which enhances the experience.”
- “So far so good, but I think they should come up with more in-app purchases and rewards and cut down on commercials.”
- “This game is based on a special database, not chance like real dominoes. When you purchase something, you always win until a limited time, and it includes too many ads. Please don't waste your time with games like that. Also, you can't remove ads forever; it is monthly and weekly.”
- “The game is obviously rigged with some sort of algorithm to nudge players towards spending money and viewing more ads.”
- “After the update, you need to watch ads to earn coins. It's full of money motives. Don't ever install this game; in claiming coins, you will not get more than 100 coins. I uninstalled it and tried to install a better version of dominoes.”
