The monetization strategy of the game has been heavily criticized for its excessive and intrusive ad placements, with many players reporting that they spend more time watching ads than actually playing.

Despite some acknowledging the game's potential, the overwhelming presence of ads has led many to uninstall the game or express dissatisfaction with its cash-grab nature.
“I understand that it's free to play and all, but $20 for no ads that don't even include reward ads is ridiculous.”
“I wouldn't even mind paying for no ads either, but there are so many ads right off the bat that you can't even get an idea of whether you would like the game or not.”
“Great time killer, should be cheaper for no ads.”
“I've spent more time watching ads than actually playing the game.”
“At this point, it's a choice between a ludicrous number of ads or paying to play.”

The gameplay experience is heavily marred by an overwhelming number of intrusive ads, often interrupting play every few seconds and making it feel more like a series of commercials than an engaging game. Players report that the mechanics are flawed, leading to negative progression and a lack of meaningful gameplay, with many feeling that the game is unplayable without spending money to remove ads. While some users appreciate the initial concept and gameplay mechanics, the constant ad interruptions and poor balancing significantly detract from the overall enjoyment.
“I really enjoyed the concept and the first few minutes of gameplay, and will return if ad structure can be redesigned more successfully.”
“Awesome, very comfortable, and very nice gameplay with strategies.”
“Fun unique style gameplay.”
“Garbage mechanics which are unscaled for progression, and a metric ton of ads that interrupt your game constantly.”
“This app, despite looking quite fun, is quickly struck down by an overload of intrusive ads. It's like every 45 seconds to a minute another ad rears its head, and the no ad purchases is a ridiculous 20 dollars. Will not be seeing what this game has to offer; it's more watching ads than actual gameplay.”
“Gameplay wise, there's also the problem where you get into negative spirals where the jobs you take offer less money than the previous job, but the pets, house, college degrees, clothes, and car you need to qualify for the job are more expensive to upkeep, so you're taking huge steps back that can't be reversed.”
