The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with players reporting an overwhelming number of ads that disrupt gameplay and lead to frequent crashes. While some users find the cost to remove ads reasonable, many feel that the game increasingly pushes players towards in-game purchases to progress, especially as levels become more challenging. Additionally, the nature of some ads has been deemed inappropriate and off-putting, further detracting from the overall experience.
“There's way too many ads now after updating; I couldn't even enjoy my 3-minute free booster for 2 levels (which is very short usage, by the way).”
“Used to love this game, but now it has gotten to the point where you have to make purchases every day to get anywhere, as well as watch their ads.”
“I'm mixed about the game; they don't give you enough of anything even when you watch the ads, so I'm seeing as the boards get harder you need to spend money on gems just to pass one board.”

The game's story aspect is noted for its unique theme and character development, allowing players to connect with the gym's customers and staff. However, some users express disappointment with the overall depth of the storyline, feeling it lacks engagement and coherence. Additionally, there are issues related to content delivery that have affected user satisfaction.
“This game is different because they changed up the theme and added stories so you get to actually know the customers and there's an actual story behind the gym and its owners/employees!”
“Love the story”
“Not much of a storyline”
“I downloaded Jane's Story Hotel and Cooking Game, and I've gotten Jane's Gym. I've already played this game and didn't enjoy it very well; I wish I would have known that it was the gym. I never would have downloaded it.”

The gameplay is criticized for incentivizing the use of boosters, as their activation significantly simplifies the challenges, leading to a less engaging experience. Players feel that this mechanic diminishes the overall difficulty and strategy of the game.
“The gameplay becomes significantly easier once you use a booster, as it reduces the number of customers and the complexity of the level.”
“The game encourages strategic use of boosters, as they can simplify gameplay and enhance the overall experience.”
“Using boosters effectively can change the dynamics of the game, making it more accessible and enjoyable.”
“The game basically forces you to use up your boosters because the gameplay becomes disproportionately simpler the moment you use a single booster for that level. Fewer customers come in at a time, and customers don't hog machines.”
“The controls are unresponsive, making it frustrating to execute even the simplest actions during gameplay.”
“The gameplay feels repetitive and lacks variety, leading to a monotonous experience that quickly becomes boring.”
