The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with players noting that while ads are present, they are generally not overly intrusive and can be skippable or short. However, many users express frustration with the frequency of ads, particularly after each level, and the limitations imposed by a ticket system that restricts gameplay unless additional purchases are made. Overall, while some players appreciate the option to pay for an ad-free experience, others feel that the ad load detracts from the enjoyment of the game.
- “You need to spend money to upgrade your cards to premium level, you're forced to watch lots of ads, and you can only play 6 levels a day, or you need to purchase more tickets to play.”
- “Okay game is fun but the unskippable ads before every stage are just ridiculous.”
- “I mean, I'm not against ads at all and I'd watch some for rewards, but do I really have to watch a full ad and still cost me a ticket for the stage?”
