The monetization strategy of the game has been heavily criticized for its excessive and intrusive ads, which disrupt gameplay and frustrate players.

- “You spend more time watching ads than you do building. The ads make it impossible to enjoy.”
- “It's a good game, but the amount of ads can become annoying. I understand that you have to make money, but the amount of ads drove me to uninstall.”
