The monetization strategy of this game has drawn significant criticism, with many users reporting an overwhelming number of ads, even in the paid "no ads" version. Players express frustration over frequent interruptions from ads, high subscription costs, and the presence of paywalls for basic features, leading to perceptions of the game as a cash grab, particularly concerning its appeal to children. Overall, while the gameplay is enjoyable, the intrusive advertising and expensive in-app purchases detract from the experience.
“I really want to give it 5 stars, but the reason why I put 3 stars instead is that the game would tell you that you can get all premium items, augmented reality, no ads, and +100 coins and +20 gems every day.”
“Probably a good game for someone who wants to pay for no ads; the free version is way too ad-heavy.”
“It says free game but in-app purchases, so it's really not free at all. 14 bucks to play with cats; there is no way I'm doing that.”
“The amount of ads is also unbearable.”
“A blatant cash grab with paywalls at every turn.”
“Even basic features are locked behind expensive microtransactions.”
