The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback due to the excessive number of ads, which many players find intrusive and disruptive to gameplay. Users report being bombarded with ads after nearly every action, such as killing the buddy or selecting weapons, leading to frustration and a diminished gaming experience. While some players acknowledge the need for ads in free games, they argue that the frequency and length of these ads are excessive, with many suggesting that the game would be significantly improved by reducing the ad load or offering a more reasonable one-time purchase option to remove them.
