The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with players reporting non-functional ads for rewards and a steep paywall that emerges around dungeon levels 2000-3000, necessitating daily play and ad engagement to progress. Many feel that the $10 fee to remove ads is excessive, suggesting a lower price point would be more appropriate, while others describe the overall experience as tedious and indicative of a cash grab rather than a well-designed game.
- “The monetization model is fair and allows players to enjoy the game without feeling pressured to spend money.”
- “I appreciate that there are options to support the game without being forced into microtransactions.”
- “The game offers a balanced approach to monetization, making it accessible for both casual players and those willing to invest.”
- “Repeating until about dungeon level 2000 - 3000, where you hit the massive paywall again, which requires daily attendance now as progression slows. The only way to farm needed currency is through ads and daily attendance for scraps for hundreds of days to achieve a repeat of all that came before.”
- “$10 to unlock ads is a little too much for this kind of game; $4.99 makes more sense.”
- “Very boring and a cash grab.”
