The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, who report that despite purchasing the "no ads" option, ads continue to appear frequently and disrupt gameplay. Many players feel that the game is overly reliant on ads, with some describing it as an "ad-watching simulator" where the experience is marred by constant interruptions and unskippable ads. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as exploitative, leading to frustration and prompting some users to uninstall the game.
- “I purchased the no ads option because it is an amusing little game and I figured, hey, four dollars to support a dev, cool.”
- “Very addicting, I like the music; it calms my mind. I paid for no ads so whenever you want to upgrade your bullets to a different tier, you don't necessarily have to watch them.”
- “When will people realize that the 'no-ads' IAP is typically only forced or intermittent or banner ads? 'Ad rewards' are separate from that.”
- “Overall this is less game and more so a theater for showing ads for other such games.”
- “This game is designed for the sole purpose of getting you to watch ads.”
- “The rounds last about 10 seconds then you have to watch minutes of ads between rounds.”

The gameplay is marred by excessive and repetitive ad interruptions, with players often feeling that they are engaging more in an "ad-watching simulator" than in actual gameplay. While the core mechanics may be interesting, the lack of variety and clear instructions, combined with the necessity to watch ads for progression, detracts significantly from the overall experience.
- “The gameplay is good but ads and also shotgun shells or bullet casing have gunpowder and explode to shoot the bullet; I think you left the casing on.”
- “Has an in-app purchase that says no ads; however, it's a scam. Everything still requires ads and only removes ads after gameplay. In order to get better weapons, you must still watch ads.”
- “Ad watching simulator. Interesting concept, however, the more durable blocks get annoying and the gameplay is repetitive. If you played one level, you've seen it all. The end seems almost impossible to reach, and the easiest way to advance in the game is to spend your time watching ads, but since the game scales with you, it makes no difference.”
- “Extremely long ads; virtually every minute of gameplay is offset by a minute of advertisements.”
