The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming frequency of forced advertisements that disrupt gameplay. Many players express frustration over the inability to skip ads, which often cover essential game controls, making the experience nearly unplayable. While some users appreciate the game's potential and would consider paying for an ad-free version, the current ad saturation detracts heavily from overall enjoyment.
- “Adore this game, just wish it had an option to permanently buy no ads. I would spend $15 on a permanent no ads feature.”
- “Nothing but ads after (literally) every other move.”
- “Game has effort put into it but it's unplayable because of the ads, and also rather slow-paced.”
- “The game itself isn't too bad, a little slow and lackluster in general but not a bad timewaster, alas, the game is ruined by the overly frequent forced ads.”

The gameplay is characterized by simple mechanics that some players find enjoyable, but many express frustration due to frequent, intrusive ads that disrupt the experience. While the game has potential with its decent concept, it suffers from a lack of depth and variety, leading to a repetitive and often boring experience. Players are calling for improvements in fairness, graphics, and overall engagement to enhance the gameplay.
- “The gameplay is quite simple.”
- “Great game, simple mechanics but good overall.”
- “Love gameplay and the idea.”
- “Can't keep track of what I'm doing or where I'm going because you keep giving me ads just as I'm making a move, then take 5 to 10 extra seconds to close out once the ad is done... frustrating my gameplay is not a way to keep me coming back.”
- “It's not intense gameplay at all; it's quite boring.”
- “Gameplay is really limited; once you've played it for about five minutes, you've played all of it.”

- “No story to the game and excitement.”
