The monetization strategy of the game has received significant criticism for its heavy reliance on ads, particularly forced ads that interrupt gameplay and are often lengthy and unskippable. While some players appreciate the option to watch ads for rewards, many feel that the balance is skewed, with excessive ads detracting from the overall enjoyment and experience of the game. Additionally, issues with ad functionality, such as crashes and failure to provide rewards, have further frustrated users, leading to a general sentiment that the monetization approach is overly aggressive and detrimental to gameplay.
“It's a great game, but I spent money to get no ads and still have ads.”
“I paid for no ads and still looking at ads; I would like a refund if this is not fixed.”
“But this one is way better, there are no ads at all unless you want to watch one to receive a reward.”
“The amount of ads is really unreasonable - forced ads, bonus ads, ad-based icons lining both sides of the screen - and it really takes away from the enjoyment.”
“I really like the game but the downside is you're forced to watch ads; how would you enjoy a game when you're forced to watch a 30-second ad?”
“It's a fun game, but after spending a week playing, I realized I spent like 90% of my 'gaming time' just watching repetitive ads... what a waste of time...”

“Since you're asking for a monthly subscription to remove ads, and considering the price (converted to my currency), I expect a better game in terms of graphics, playability, dynamics, and mechanics.”
“A blatant copy from 'My Hotpot Story' but with slightly different drawings; even the art style itself seems to be the same or at least extremely similar. It's a literal copy and not even from the same studio.”
“Need more work on the graphics and layout of the game, but for now, it's okay.”
