The monetization model of the game is primarily based on optional ads that players can choose to watch for hints or solutions, which many users appreciate as it avoids intrusive advertising during gameplay. However, some players express frustration over the requirement to watch two separate ads (one for a hint and another for the solution) and the occasional unavailability of ads, which can leave them stuck on levels. Overall, while the ad implementation is generally seen as less intrusive compared to other games, the reliance on ads for hints can detract from the experience for some users.
