  • monetization

    52 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Monetization in the game is generally well-received, featuring minimal and mostly optional ads that do not disrupt gameplay, with in-app purchases being affordable and non-intrusive.

    • “The graphics are cute and the in-app purchases are fair.”
    • “The ads are annoying; every time I go to watch one it goes through the entire ad then freezes the game and I have to close the game down and lose out on the diamonds. This has happened multiple times already.”
    • “Great idea but ads that require me to tap, then quickly show a popup I tap on and end up on an external website is an absolute no-go!”
    • “Really great game guys, I especially like the part where the ads have to 'cool down' (dumbest thing I've ever heard, by the way) so the game can force you into making microtransactions to continue.”
