The game's monetization is heavily criticized for excessive and intrusive forced ads that disrupt gameplay, with many users reporting ads that even appear after paying for the "no ads" option. Players frequently encounter ads every minute, often unskippable, and persistent prompts to purchase ad removal, which many see as a cash grab undermining enjoyment. Overall, the ad implementation severely hampers progression and frustrates users, leading to negative perceptions of the monetization approach.
- “For bonus points, all ads force the Play Store to open, which in turn forces the game to relaunch, and those massive stacks of money you were trying to get into the vault just disappear into thin air!”
- “The game is just okay, but every time you have to level up any station or desk after the first level, you have to watch ads back to back until you can progress. This turns the game into a series of forced ads to make money off a game that really sucks.”
- “If you configure your phone to block ads, this game forces you to watch them or pay to remove them, making it impossible to close the ad window or play without paying. Stay away from it and don't install!”

The game's stability is poor, with frequent freezes and glitches that hinder gameplay. Additionally, problematic ads and a non-functional no-ads payment option lead to forced interruptions and lost progress, causing significant user frustration.

- “Freezes up and can't play the game.”
