The monetization strategy of the game is heavily criticized for its excessive reliance on ads, with many players expressing frustration over the need to watch ads for essential rewards and gameplay elements. While some enjoy the gameplay, the overwhelming presence of ads—often requiring players to watch them for daily gifts and other features—detracts significantly from the experience. Additionally, the high costs for in-game purchases and subscription options to remove ads are seen as unreasonable, leading to a general sentiment that the game prioritizes monetization over player enjoyment.
