monetization
112 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, who express a strong preference for ads over the paywall that blocks access to the latter half of the game. Many players feel that requiring a payment to continue after enjoying a free experience is disrespectful and a cash grab, suggesting that incorporating ads would be a more acceptable way to generate revenue while allowing full access to the game. Overall, the consensus is that while the absence of ads is appreciated, the forced in-app purchases detract from the overall enjoyment and accessibility of the game.
“There are no ads which isn't very common in most games today and the creators aren't money hungry.”
“No ads, no in-app purchases, no wifi required.”
“I understand that companies need to make money, and I am grateful that there are no ads, but perhaps you could change it so you can finish all the levels for free, but some items like costumes and eggs cost real money.”
“It's not that a dollar is a lot, but the fact that it comes out of literally nowhere (no other in-game purchases that I could see) halfway through the game felt flat out disrespectful.”
“Charging to continue to play in the middle of the game is shameless monetization by soulless money-hungry developers.”
“I understand that the developers need a profit, but they should just use advertising to increase the energy level of your duck or a similar mechanic.”
