The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback due to the excessive frequency of ads, which disrupt gameplay significantly. Players report being bombarded with ads every 15 to 30 seconds, making the game feel more like an ad-watching experience than actual gameplay. While there is an option to pay $4.99 to remove ads, many users feel that even after purchasing this feature, ads still appear, leading to frustration and a diminished overall experience.
“I paid the $4.99 for no ads, and the whole thing is definitely much better.”
“Buying the no ads makes it way smoother to play.”
“I bought the no ads for this game even before the upgrade.”
“The game is almost unplayable unless you pay to remove ads!!!”
“I understand how ads help the developer and all; however, if I purchase something that makes it so I don't have ads in my game, there should not be ads.”
“The amount of ads is ridiculous.”
