The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming presence of ads that disrupt gameplay and create a frustrating experience. Many players feel that the reliance on advertisements and in-app purchases is excessive, making it difficult to progress without watching numerous ads or spending real money. Additionally, technical issues related to ads, such as crashes and failures to deliver purchased items, have further soured the experience for many users.
“The game concept is kind of cool, the graphics suit it, but the implementation is pretty bad for two reasons: the interface, which is really annoying at times when it gets clogged, and the microtransactions; overall, the game feels like it's aching for money. The only messages you receive are money offers, and the expensive bikes require tons of work points that only very expensive workers can provide unless you want to spend an entire week building one bike.”
“The game itself is good; however, as I've progressed, it slowly breaks for me if I don't have any workers available. It force closes my game, and now I can't make in-app purchases. It takes my money but doesn't give me anything, and I can't back up my saves anymore. Quite sad, as it is a great game otherwise.”
“Fun game and in-app purchases are not necessary.”
“It's just an underhand mechanic to bring the game to a grinding halt unless you watch endless videos or pay up hard cash on in-app purchases.”
“The game is 90% ads now... super annoying and keeps interrupting gameplay.”
“I purchased 8 in-game purchases, they took the money but I didn't receive the items due to the game freezing. I tried contacting them for a refund only to receive an email saying their inbox is over capacity... it's been a few weeks, still no reply, and no refund!”
