  • monetization5,579 mentions

    The monetization strategy of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback from users, primarily due to the excessive number of ads. Players report being bombarded with ads before and after nearly every level, leading to frustration and a diminished gaming experience. Many users express a desire for a one-time purchase option to remove ads, as the current subscription model and in-app purchases are viewed as overpriced and exploitative. Overall, while the game itself is appreciated for its concept and design, the aggressive monetization tactics significantly detract from its enjoyment.

    • “This game is amazing, I can play this game for hours and the music is excellent, no ads like other games.”
    • “There are no ads.”
    • “The problem is that you pretty much get ads every single time you press a button.”
    • “I understand that they want to make money, but the amount of advertising is just too much... maybe one every 10 minutes, but before and after every level and one for 'free' exclusives, and you have to follow their social media... and only upgradeable with a subscription... great game, but the monetization is bad.”
    • “You will spend more time watching ads than actually playing the game, which honestly?”
    • “The game is good but the ads keep coming and ruin all the fun if the ads are not there and the thing were you have to pay real money and can only play some levels isn't there then the game might be much better.”
    • “The game is fun but the ads are crazy, over the top, literally after putting together every picture....i would of rated 5 stars but the ads wreck the experience.....im happy to watch 1 ad after each two or three games but your have completely smothered the game with them.....im uninstalling because of that...”

However, many users express frustration over the frequent ads and the high cost of unlocking additional content, which detracts from the overall enjoyment of the visuals.

    • “The graphics are beautiful and it is a very fun concept.”
    • “The graphics are amazing and it takes just enough to keep me interested but not frustrated.”
    • “The graphics are a little glitchy: light blue shapes appear around pieces that are black/purple, etc. - these shadows get hidden if there's a white piece, either in the foreground or background, overlapping the darker one.”
    • “It's plagued by ads; one or two levels and you get an ad, then they have the audacity to make you watch a full-length ad for levels required to progress. It's not a huge problem, just the number of ads is infuriating.”
    • “The game was good when I started, but then I had to do 16 artworks to unlock more, meaning I had to watch ads.”
  • gameplay254 mentions

    The gameplay is generally described as simple, creative, and enjoyable, but it is severely hampered by an overwhelming number of ads that disrupt the experience. Many users express frustration over the ad-to-gameplay ratio, often noting that they spend more time watching ads than actually playing, which diminishes the overall enjoyment.

    • “The gameplay just gets boring after a while anyway.”
    • “Overall the whole game is about 90% ads, 5% stuff you pay to play, and 5% actual free gameplay.”
  • music187 mentions

    The music in the game is widely praised for its calming and soothing qualities, enhancing the overall relaxing experience for players. However, many users express frustration with the frequent interruptions caused by ads, which disrupt the peaceful ambiance and prevent them from enjoying their own music simultaneously.

  • stability45 mentions

    • “It freezes after every level, plus you can only play a few a day.”
  • humor18 mentions

However, the overwhelming number of ads detracts from the enjoyment, leading to frustration among users who feel the ad frequency undermines the game's comedic value.

    • “They are cats, funny cats to be exact hahahahahaha.”
    • “The game is fine and I'm okay with the ads; I find it hilarious it has the nerve to ask for almost $100 a year to keep ads out of the game.”

  • story7 mentions

    The story aspect of the game is criticized for being minimal and heavily monetized, with players facing numerous ads and limited missions unless they pay a subscription fee. Many users feel that the content is not worth the cost, as it lacks depth and engagement compared to higher-quality games. Overall, the narrative experience is seen as frustrating and underwhelming.

    • “For a fraction of that price, I can go buy a high-end game with a real story and content, and I would own it.”
