The monetization strategy of the game is primarily based on optional ads that players can choose to watch for rewards, which many users appreciate as they are not forced. However, players frequently express frustration over the limited number of ads available for rewards, long wait times for item recharges, and the increasing reliance on ads for progression, leading some to feel the game is becoming a cash grab. While some players enjoy the lack of intrusive ads and the ability to play without spending money, others find the overall experience hindered by the need to watch numerous ads or make in-game purchases to progress effectively.

- “You end up needing to watch tons of ads just to keep up with the amount of gold you really need.”
