The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with players appreciating the absence of intrusive ads and the ability to earn in-game currency without mandatory purchases. However, many users find the cost of premium choices and items, such as gems and rubies, to be excessively high, leading to frustration over the slow earning rate and limited ad opportunities for currency.

- “It is actually pretty good; I don't mind the choices you need to buy with gems. I was having fun, and it's kinda sad that it ended. If you time everything perfectly, you can finish the game in 2-3 days without any in-app purchases for an ending, so I really recommend playing this game if you are interested.”
- “Also, no ads unless you want currency!”
- “It's good; it's the same as others, but the time I want to watch ads, it tells me that there are no ads to watch. Can you get more ads?”
- “Stupid cash grab... the story is fine, but not great.”

- “Buying rubies costs real money, and it's hard to play the minigame where you can get points, and it's hard to wait for ads.”

The gameplay is generally well-received for its simplicity and engaging story, but many users express frustration over the reliance on rubies for making choices, which they feel detracts from the overall experience. Players criticize the monetization strategy that requires spending real money or waiting excessively to earn in-game currency, suggesting it undermines the enjoyment of the game. Despite these issues, the graphics and core gameplay mechanics are praised.
- “Love the gameplay but the gems need to be less expensive for a choice.”
- “Nice graphics and good gameplay.”
- “Simple gameplay and good story.”
- “The gameplay should have been more than just making choices and reading. You need rubies just to make a choice, and the only ways to get rubies are by trading points or buying them with real money. Watching an ad to get points takes 4 hours before you can watch another ad. Why did you have to put rubies just to make some choices?”
- “Good game, but if you want money, don't use the gameplay since it ruins the fun.”
- “I wish there wasn't always diamonds involved, and that the gameplay was more straightforward.”
