The monetization strategy of the game heavily relies on advertisements, which players find excessive and intrusive, often interrupting gameplay. While some users appreciate the ability to earn in-game rewards through watching ads, many express frustration over the frequency and necessity of ads for progression, leading to a perception of a pay-to-win model. Overall, the balance between ad revenue and user experience appears to be a significant concern among players.
“I purchased the no advertisement option.”
“This game is amazing! Out of the whole time I've played, I got no ads on it. It's just good and realistic.”
“I love the game, but due to no ads, it's taking long to save rubies or upgrade to the next reel or line.”
“1) Too many unnecessary ads in the game, like claiming rewards for leveling up, claiming gems from the fish book, at the bottom of the screen when fishing, etc. 2) Pay-to-win.”
“So this is basically a junk game only for making money from making people watch ads.”
“More ads than any other game out there... horrible.”
