Monetization in the game is heavily reliant on ads, with many players expressing frustration over the frequency and intrusiveness of these advertisements, particularly when unlocking chests or earning in-game currency. While some users appreciate the option to pay a small fee to remove ads, others feel that the game manipulates players into watching ads for rewards, leading to a tedious experience. Overall, the balance between free-to-play accessibility and ad presence remains a contentious point among players.
“Plays smooth, great controls and a nice idea, microtransactions fully optional and not greedy.”
“The only annoying part initially will be earning gold, but if you support the developer and purchase no ads, it's definitely worth it.”
“It's an amazing game and no ads unless you watch a video, but it's a fun game and I would play it over and over.”
“The game is worthless if you can't monetize it; ads need to be carefully thought out by developers to be rewarding, not punishing the player for not paying.”
“Fun game, but the developers trick you into watching the ads by making you either spend hours trying to get enough coins to buy a new (expensive) character through grinding or watching an ad.”
“I understand that ads keep it free to play, but whenever you get a treasure chest you have to watch an ad to open it.”

“Good game, but it could do with an option to mute the sound effects (not just the music).”
“Like for example, when I enter the graveyard place, the music should start to get more intense instead of just the music changing the longer you play.”

Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessive and tedious, often requiring repetitive gameplay to unlock new content and upgrades. While some appreciate the rewarding nature of the grind and the game's visuals, many express frustration over the low coin rewards and reliance on ads, leading to a sense of monotony and loss of progress. Overall, the grinding can detract from the enjoyment, making it feel more like a chore than a fun experience.
“It's not worth a 5/5 because if you want to unlock everything, it's a bit grindy and will take some time, and the game is a bit repetitive.”
“You end up doing the same first two worlds over and over again just for the sake of farming, when you just want to go farther and explore new environments.”
“Unfortunately, it's ruined by the unreasonable amount of grinding (or in-game coins purchasable with micro-transactions), and by randomly losing progress and having to restart from nothing.”
