The monetization model of the game primarily revolves around watching ads to earn points, which can be used to unlock various features and items. While many users appreciate the option to avoid direct payments by watching ads, they express frustration over the high number of ads required to accumulate enough points for desired items, often leading to a tedious experience. Overall, the system is seen as a fair trade-off for a free game, but improvements in point rewards and ad frequency are commonly suggested.
“Although, it does have in-app purchases, the items are really cheap (from $0.99 to $1.99).”
“The in-app purchases aren't crazily overpriced, but I would like it if we got more free stuff.”
“In-app purchases are worth the money, and truly enhance your capability and experience in the game.”
“I had to watch a ton of ads to unlock everything and having to do that twice gets exhausting.”
“I watched a bunch of ads and got 'points' I couldn't use.”
“You can only earn points through watching ads which is somewhat annoying.”

Overall, the gameplay is well-received, with many users praising its smoothness, enjoyable mechanics, and appealing graphics.
