The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of forced ads that appear after every level, which disrupts gameplay and progression. While players are willing to watch ads for bonuses, the frequency and nature of the ads—often unskippable and excessive—have led many to feel that the game is more of an ad simulator than an enjoyable experience. Additionally, the option to pay for an ad-free experience is seen as necessary for a more enjoyable gameplay, but many users still find the in-app purchases to be overpriced.
