The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming presence of ads that disrupt gameplay. Many players report intrusive ads that cover essential buttons and pop up frequently, often leading to accidental purchases. Despite options to pay for an ad-free experience, numerous users express frustration over still encountering ads after making such purchases, indicating a poorly implemented monetization system that detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game.
- “This game is amazing, the puzzles can be quite brain teasers, but not impossible and there are no ads whatsoever. It's a very immersive game and very hard to stop playing once you start, I love it.”
- “Great game, very entertaining and no ads.”
- “No ads interrupt while playing the game.”
- “The game is fun, and the puzzles are creative and interesting, but it's ruined by ads and constant 'sales' urging you to spend money.”
- “I can't properly play or enjoy the game because there are ads that constantly pop up on the screen, and there's an ad banner that stays on the bottom of the game screen, it's in the way of enjoying/playing the game.”
- “I'm sure it's done so that you pay for the no ads option, but at this point this isn't a game, it's a non-stop ads video, the game is so simple you spend more time watching the ads between each room.”

Character development in the game has received mixed feedback, with some players appreciating the overall experience but criticizing the portrayal of characters, particularly Sophia, who appears overly polished and glamorized for someone who has just awakened from a 27-year coma. This disconnect between her appearance and her backstory detracts from the authenticity of her character.
- “I really like the game overall, but it feels AI-generated. I have a complaint about Sophia's character design; for someone who has been in a coma for 27 years, she looks pretty polished and glamorized. Her blonde hair still looks light and shiny, and her full face of makeup does not make her look like a coma patient.”
