The monetization strategy of the game has drawn mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the reliance on ads for energy, which often yield minimal rewards and can lead to game crashes. While some appreciate the option to watch ads for free energy, the overall sentiment suggests that the energy costs are too high, making it difficult to progress without spending money on in-app purchases. Additionally, concerns have been raised about the nature of some ads, which are deemed inappropriate or misleading compared to the actual gameplay.

“Don't have to spend money on microtransactions to enjoy.”

“You spend most of your few minutes watching ads to get enough energy to play.”
“The energy cost for simple actions is simply too much sometimes, and even trading in fruit, watching ads, and completing board jobs still doesn't provide enough energy to sit and play for more than 5 minutes.”

The reviews highlight a common sentiment that while the game offers enjoyable graphics and gameplay, the grinding aspect can become tedious and frustrating, especially due to energy limitations that hinder progress. Many players feel that without spending money, the pace of advancement is slow and repetitive, leading to a loss of interest over time. Overall, the game is seen as a typical farming simulator that struggles with balancing energy consumption and player engagement.
“But you cannot complete events without spending money and grinding, and it takes way too long to get anywhere without spending money, so I have lost interest.”
“The ratio for energy gained to energy spent is way off... you can only play for a minute or two tops before having to close the game to regain energy... to clear one thing takes most of your energy... this could have been a fun game, but it's simply too tedious to only play a minute or two every hour...”
“Engergy gets used so fast and replaced so slowly it makes the game tedious and boring.”
