Overall, players value the game's accessibility and the developers' approach to monetization, though concerns about microtransactions and technical issues persist.

“No ads and full game unlocked for a worthwhile $9.99 or less if you grind.”

“You're paywalled after a few missions to pay for it like it's a paid app; however, they added a number of microtransactions and made it impossible to advance without paying for currency.”
“Now, I have to watch ads before I play... not happy, and probably won't keep it now. I understand you have to make money, but if you choose to put ads in your game, then everything in the game should be free, or no ads and charge for stuff... greed is the culprit here.”
“Game but like most cash grab games, you need to pay to progress at any reasonable rate.”

The reviews indicate that the game is heavily grind-oriented, requiring players to replay levels extensively to earn in-game currency for upgrades and unlocking new content.

Overall, the game is seen as fun but marred by excessive grinding, making it less appealing for casual play.
“The only bad thing about this game is that it doesn't have cloud saving, making your hard grinding efforts go to waste.”
“Fun to play initially, but once you've completed the early levels, you are faced with the choice of grinding through again and again to be able to unlock new areas or, surprise surprise, pay for them.”
“The amount of grinding will piss you off far before getting anywhere in the game.”
