Gameplay is criticized for being excessively slow and repetitive, particularly due to the removal of microtransactions, which has led to a lack of balance in earning necessary items. While the game has enjoyable elements, the reliance on hard-to-obtain resources detracts from the overall experience, making it feel less engaging compared to previous titles from the developer.

- “These mechanics bring down what's an otherwise fun game.”
- “Please make it easy to get the tickets; all the gameplay needs tickets.”
