The monetization model of the game is generally well-received, with players appreciating the option to watch ads voluntarily for coins or hints rather than being forced to view them. While some users express frustration over occasional ad interruptions, many highlight the balance of minimal ads and the ability to play for free without intrusive monetization tactics. Overall, the game is praised for its reasonable ad frequency and the option to enhance gameplay through optional ad views.
- “No ads, no personal information asked, no-nonsense game.”
- “Again, so far, no ads and haven't been asked to pay for more levels or any other purchases.”

- “Now I do not pay for coins but have had to sit through ads to continue a game that I enjoy, but the fact I have done nothing wrong and then have to watch ads is so annoying. Why is this happening? If I paid for coins, it would be a rip-off.”
- “That either leaves you watching more ads than playing or using real money on a game, which I will not do.”
