If you watch the ad, you get rewarded with another ad in order to continue playing the game. Heaven forbid you choose not to watch the ad, because you'll get 1 or 2 anyway. I timed 5 levels in 5 minutes; there were 43 seconds of gameplay and the rest was ads. Please stop making games.”
- “More of adware than actual gameplay, containing ads for every stage you play.”
