The monetization model of the game is primarily freemium, allowing players to progress through watching ads for boosts and completing missions, though many users find the ad frequency excessive and disruptive. While some appreciate the optional nature of ads for bonuses, others criticize the game for being slow to load and for ads that often conflict with gameplay, leading to frustration and a feeling of being forced to watch ads to progress. Overall, the balance between ad integration and gameplay experience is a significant point of contention among players.
“Fun time killer but kept from truly good by the free-to-play monetization.”
“Awesome game so far, no ads... I hope it stays ad-free.”
“It's fun, the auction is so cool, there's no ads as well.”
“Everything is just designed to be clickbait for ads and perhaps spending real cash to get those cards.”
“Play an hour, and then you can't progress... you're forced to wait hours to get money to progress... it's like they purposely don't want you to play the game.”
“This is an unfortunate cash grab attempt, and I am wildly disappointed.”

The story aspect of the game is heavily centered around completing missions to progress and unlock new features, but players frequently encounter issues such as mission freezes, lack of new missions, and frustratingly repetitive upgrades. Many users express dissatisfaction with the mission structure, feeling stuck due to glitches and a lack of variety, which detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game. While the concept of city-specific challenges adds some intrigue, the execution is marred by technical problems and a perceived imbalance in mission rewards.
“And each city has its own challenges... it's like a new game every city... love it!”
“The key to the game is the missions that unlock capsules at the beginning. Save as many capsules as you can to win actions to update.”
“Rent is earned fast, and the missions are fairly simple to complete.”
“Then halfway through the game you don't have any more missions.”
“Really enjoy playing but there are a lot of issues. First off, the card pack selection consists of constant upgrades on buildings you already have, which is annoying after being stuck for 2 weeks and not being able to complete missions. I started using diamonds to skip those missions, but now I can't even play any more missions; it just keeps saying 'epilogue missions coming soon.' This has been the case in Atlantic City for 3 weeks now, and Paris is saying the same thing.”
“Too many glitches in the missions where it is not registering when you fulfill the requirements.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and repetitive, particularly due to the minigames becoming unplayable over time. There is a desire for more strategic depth in building interactions to alleviate the monotony of matching tasks.

“But as you go along, it gets quite tedious.”
