The monetization aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many users expressing frustration over the frequency and length of ads, which often appear after completing puzzles or during gameplay. While some players appreciate that ads do not interrupt the puzzle-solving process, others feel misled by advertisements claiming "no annoying ads," as they encounter numerous ads that can be lengthy and intrusive. Additionally, the subscription model to remove ads is considered expensive by many, leading to dissatisfaction among users who prefer a one-time payment option. Overall, while the game offers enjoyable puzzles, the monetization strategy through ads has been a significant point of contention.

“I like that there are no ads during the puzzles!!!”
“Love the gorgeous pictures, ease of use and no ads during my puzzle!”

“The worst part of this game are the ads, they're terrible, loud, and there's just too many of them.”
“I might delete this game only because of the ads when trying to gain points to play this game.”
