The monetization aspect of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the excessive and intrusive ads that appear frequently, often after every level or attempt. Many players express frustration over the forced nature of these ads, which disrupt gameplay and lead to crashes, making the game nearly unplayable. While some users are willing to tolerate ads for rewards, the overwhelming sentiment is that the current ad frequency detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game, with calls for a more balanced approach to monetization, such as optional ads for bonuses or a paid ad-free version.
- “I appreciate no ads interrupting gameplay, but would welcome opportunities to earn additional lives by choosing to watch ads.”
- “The good thing is there's no ads, which is a very pleasant surprise; other than that, you have to pick your battles if you want to continue to play.”
- “I love the game and how easy it is to get to the match part of the game and no ads; loving it, I will surely keep playing.”
- “The game itself is nicely designed, but the amount of ads you have to go through to complete one puzzle is insane (which earns you just one move in the main design game, sometimes you have to go through two puzzles to earn enough for one move).”
- “Between the ads, glitches, and freezes, this game is almost completely non-playable.”
- “I love this game but the ads are ridiculous, more than I have ever had with another game & the freezing up I may quit playing it.”
