The game’s monetization heavily relies on ads, offering players a choice between personalized ads that collect extensive user data, non-personalized ads, or a paid option to remove ads entirely. This approach has raised privacy concerns among users.
- “I open the game, and the first thing I get is to choose between personalized ads (involving an endless list of international ad providers who access my data) or non-personalized ads — or I can choose to buy an ad-free version.”
