The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with many users criticizing the misleading advertisements that do not accurately represent the gameplay. Players report that the game is heavily reliant on in-app purchases, often labeling it a "pay-to-win" experience, where significant progress is difficult without spending money. While some users appreciate the absence of intrusive ads, the overall sentiment is that the game is a cash grab, with high prices for in-game items and a gameplay experience that diverges significantly from what is shown in the ads.
“Can play for free, or buy in-game purchases, but not necessary to enjoy the game.”
“It's fun, fast-paced, and doesn't require millions of in-app purchases to make any real progress, which is the case with other similar games.”
“Good game, no ads, don't need to buy anything to progress.”
“The advertising is definitely deceptive; it is a money pit. You have to spend money in order to grow, and I mean use money for everything. I am uninstalling. It would have been better if the makers hadn't made it a little bit better than this. It is ridiculous, and another thing that is totally ridiculous is they don't even supply shields unless you pay a ridiculously high price for it. This is definitely a pay-to-play game.”
“The ads show a completely different type of gameplay than this game really is. The game is designed to drain your bank account with expensive in-game purchases.”
“Be warned, the game is absolutely nothing like the advertisements you've seen. It's a pay-to-play game despite the lying ads!”

“Great graphics, interesting story, fun game mechanics.”

The grinding aspect of the game is widely criticized for being excessively tedious and time-consuming, often requiring players to log in frequently to manage resources and defend against stronger opponents. While some players find enjoyment in the grind, many express frustration over the pay-to-win mechanics that exacerbate the grind, making it difficult for free-to-play users to progress without significant effort. Overall, the game is seen as a mix of fun and frustration, heavily reliant on grinding for advancement.
“It is an ok game seems to want you to spend money but you can get around it if you do not mind grinding. The only real issue I have is you can only zoom out so far, meaning you cannot see your entire base at one time.”
“You have to spend hours grinding to get anything done and then you can be attacked 10 times by one person and have them completely destroy you with no way to defend yourself. Yeah, not a fan; I'm uninstalling. Don't waste your time.”
“The game is designed to be tedious in order to make you pay to avoid tediousness.”
