The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, with many expressing frustration over the excessive number of ads that interrupt gameplay. Players report spending more time watching ads than actually playing, with mandatory ads appearing after nearly every action, making the experience feel more like an advertisement platform than a game. While some acknowledge that watching ads can yield in-game rewards, the overwhelming frequency and length of these ads, coupled with high subscription fees for ad removal, have led many to label the game a cash grab and ultimately unplayable.

- “No ads can be played offline.”
- “The game is fun, but it is unplayable for two reasons: firstly, the ads.”
