The monetization model of the game has received mixed feedback, with some players expressing frustration over the $6 price for the full version, suggesting that a free version with ads would be preferable. While some users appreciate the absence of ads and enjoy the gameplay, others feel that the current pricing strategy is a "greedy cash grab" and would rather have the option to play for free with advertisements. Overall, the sentiment indicates a desire for more flexible monetization options.
“But the game is still good and all; also, kids are the only ones who care about the in-app purchases. For me, I do not care; I just play it freely.”
“So far, there have been no ads, and the story mode is amazing! 😍”
“Fun game and no ads.”
“I don't understand why this game can't be completely free; just put some ads.”
“Good game, but there's something that annoys me very badly: the full game. I think you should add an update that allows you to play the full game with ads because having to pay $6 for the full game is kind of annoying.”
“I'm going to be totally honest, Hello Neighbor has just sucked since Secret Neighbor, and this greedy cash grab doesn't help.”
