The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the frequency and intrusiveness of ads, particularly after the initial chapters. While some appreciate the option to watch ads for in-game currency to unlock additional content, others feel that the ads disrupt the immersive storytelling experience. The introduction of a premium option to remove ads has been noted, but the price point is considered steep by some users, leading to a desire for more flexible payment options or a reduction in ad frequency. Overall, while the game offers a free-to-play model, the reliance on ads for progression has been a significant point of contention among players.
- “An excellent game, and a welcome change of pace from all of the other mobile games that try to ram microtransactions down your throat.”
- “I have yet to run into a bunch of in-app purchases that you have to make for selections, which also helps the story shine and makes it more enjoyable as it's not distracting.”
- “So far a great little game that doesn't overly push the in-game purchases and it seems you can get by fine without them.”
- “The constant bombardment of ads is horrible.”
- “I take one star away because without purchasing the premium, the game becomes riddled with ads; this wouldn't be such a big deal if the ads didn't pull me out of my immersion with the story.”
- “The ads are frequent and intrusive, but that's fair enough.”

- “It just will not have much in terms of replay value.”
