Reviewers express concern that the game's monetization strategy feels unjustified if the game is prone to issues, suggesting that better advertising and a more stable player base are necessary to justify any costs.
- “At least make sure the game doesn't break so easily if you're going to ask for money, and do some kind of advertising so there's more than 14 players online.”
- “The monetization model feels exploitative, as it seems like every feature is locked behind a paywall.”
- “It's frustrating to see that progress is heavily gated by microtransactions, making it hard to enjoy the game without spending extra money.”
