The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with users expressing frustration over the excessive number of ads. Many players report being bombarded with ads after nearly every level, often leading to more time spent watching ads than actually playing the game. Additionally, several users who paid to remove ads found that the ads persisted, further contributing to the perception of the game as a cash grab rather than a genuinely enjoyable experience.
βAmazing no ads, great game! I recommend it to everyone πβ
βItβs fun, no ads, no problems, so get it!β
βI do have a tip: I saw lots of complaints about ads. I found that if you play with no ads, you can reduce the ads a lot!β
βIf you enjoy a game that is 96% advertisements, this is the game for you. Every 2 levels or so is an ad, and you breeze through levels really fast, so you're bound to run into like 50 ads every 10 minutes. It makes the game feel more like a cash grab scheme than a game you can enjoy.β
βI understand needing ads to make money and that's fine and respectable, but there were literally so many ads the game could barely function.β
βThe sheer number of ads in this app makes it unplayable.β

While some appreciate the smooth mechanics and creative concept, the consensus is that the excessive advertising significantly detracts from the enjoyment, making it feel more like a cash grab than a well-designed game.

βTo answer some questions that I and probably you will have, it's a very smooth and non-glitchy gameplay which I really like.β
βThe gameplay is great and it controls very smoothly.β
βI really love this game, graphics, gameplay, and controls, but I just feel that there are way too many ads!β
βYou can't play more than one round without watching an ad, so there's more ads than actual gameplay.β
βThere are more ads than actual gameplay and the little gameplay you do get is simple and boring.β
βInteresting game, but ads completely overwhelm the gameplay.β

The game suffers from significant stability issues, with numerous users reporting frequent freezes and glitches that hinder gameplay, especially after certain levels. Many players express frustration over being unable to progress due to these technical problems, leading to uninstalls and low ratings despite enjoying the game's concept. Overall, while the game has potential, its stability issues severely impact the user experience.
βThis game sucks when you're just chilling playing and then it freezes after one fold.β
βI can not complete level 77, because every time I try to complete it, the game freezes up about halfway through it.β
βNot happy with this game; it froze on the bonus round and I cannot get past that. I tried resetting three times. This game gets a 0 stars; I have uninstalled it due to too many glitches at the end of each level.β

Overall, the graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many players praising the art style and design as "amazing" and "cute." However, some users express disappointment, citing inconsistencies with promotional materials and a perception of cheapness in certain graphics.

βVery interesting concept and cute graphics.β
βI love this game; the graphics, controls, and gameplay are all amazing.β
βAmazing graphics and runs very smoothly.β
βIf I could give it a no star, I would. It is completely different from the ad I saw, and the graphics are not that good.β
βBut the downside is the graphics seem cheap.β
βPoor graphics... not a difficult one... gets bored easily... I played only 2 minutes then uninstalled.β

The music aspect of the game receives mixed reviews; while some players appreciate the calming background music and diverse styles, many express frustration over frequent ads that interrupt their listening experience. Additionally, several users note the lack of in-game music and sound effects, suggesting that the gameplay would benefit from more auditory elements. Overall, the game's music is seen as a positive feature, but the disruptive ads significantly detract from the experience.
βLove the music and the oodles of styles and themes of papers you can choose from!β
βI love the music and how calming it is πππ€β
βAlso, I am currently writing this review and the background music is not only on, but playing while I'm not actively on the game on my phone.β
βDon't even bother with this ad if you get frustrated easily by forced ads that turn off your music or a video.β
βGameplay is mediocre and the lack of music or sound makes it even worse.β
βI wish there was music or sound effects.β
