The game's monetization strategy is criticized for being overly aggressive, with frequent ads and prompts to purchase items, especially when players encounter obstacles. While it is possible to earn in-game currency, the constant push for microtransactions detracts from the overall experience, making it feel more like an advertisement than a game. Players who can resist these temptations may still enjoy the game as a casual experience.
“If you are not the kind to fall prey to microtransactions, then yes, by all means, get this game, leave it on in the background, and enjoy.”
“Was fun at first but constantly bombarded with ads to buy stuff when you hit walls.”
“But the game's monetization is very egregious.”
“You can get these in-game, which is at least a plus, but it feels like an advertisement, the way they are drip-fed to you.”
