The monetization model of the game has received mixed reviews, with some users appreciating the absence of ads and microtransactions, while others criticize the requirement of a Netflix subscription to access the game. Many players enjoy the game for its fun gameplay without interruptions, but some feel that tying it to a streaming service is an unnecessary and confusing approach to monetization.
- “A wonderful little survival game with no ads.”
- “No ads, you don't have to spend money; it's just a very good, very fun game.”
- “Surprisingly great game, even better that there are no ads or microtransactions!”

- “When an advertisement for this game came across my scrolling, it claimed to not have any fees in-game. However, not only does this game have a fee, but you are also required to pay for an active membership to even play it.”
