The monetization aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the excessive number of ads and the necessity of in-app purchases to progress. Users report that ads often do not yield the promised rewards, leading to a feeling of being cheated, while others note that the game has become increasingly reliant on ads for basic gameplay functions. Despite some players appreciating the option to watch ads for bonuses, the overall sentiment leans towards dissatisfaction due to the intrusive nature of ads and the high costs of in-game items.

The game's story aspect is largely criticized for its lack of depth and engagement, with many players noting that it lacks a coherent narrative or character development. Instead, the focus is on completing quests and styling outfits, which some find enjoyable, but others feel is repetitive and frustrating due to high costs and frequent glitches. Overall, while the quest mechanics provide opportunities for gameplay, the absence of a compelling storyline leaves many players wanting more.

“The quests and missions give you a lot of cash and diamonds, so it's not hard to buy something you want, but still please down the prices a bit.”
“I like that I don't have to deal with a bunch of goofy storylines.”
“The quests are unclear, with no information to explain them.”
“It's too bad... it would be a great game, even with occasional ads, except you can't really play the quests to advance in the game without paying real money!”

“This is the funniest game I have ever seen! 😂”
“Honestly, it's high time this game starts paying us in dollars because we established our money, time, emotions, and targets just to win a season or become a trendsetter.
