The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, who report an overwhelming number of ads and increased costs for in-game purchases. Many players feel that the game is rigged to favor those who spend money, with frequent issues of ads not providing promised rewards, leading to frustration and accusations of predatory practices. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as excessive and detrimental to the gaming experience, prompting some users to recommend against downloading the game.
“Its a good monetization scheme but I can only imagine the financial devastation this disgusting app has caused.”
“They have quadrupled the price of in-app purchases over the past 3 months alone.”

“This game was good, but now it's full of ads, and I just had to buy gems because they were cheap; now they're more expensive. It seems like they only care about money.”
