    The game's monetization is dominated by an excessive and intrusive volume of ads, often appearing after every short level and sometimes during gameplay, which significantly disrupts the user experience. Many users find the ads unskippable, overly long, and more time-consuming than actual gameplay, leading to frustration and abandonment of the game.

    • “A very interesting idea, they almost got the mechanics of the game down in a way that makes it relaxing and fun.”

    • “I would like some music in the background though.”

    • “There's no music at all, and it's like 'here's red icing and green icing, now do the cake.' What is this game's problem? ”
    • “There's nothing to this app: no music, just an annoying sound that has nothing to do with icing, and obviously the icing sound is annoying. It's just an ad dumpster.”
