The monetization strategy of Piece of Voxel has been criticized for exploiting others' work as a quick cash grab, with numerous reviews suggesting that the game relies on unethical practices, including fake reviews and asset flips. Many of these reviews are poorly written and appear shortly after the game's release, indicating a coordinated effort to mislead potential buyers.
- “Piece of Voxel has shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab.”
- “They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear almost immediately after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams.”
