The monetization of "Punk Wars: Prologue" is criticized for being more of an advertisement for the main game rather than a standalone experience, leading to frustration among users who feel it detracts from genuine indie developers. The game is described as a free product that offers little value, akin to intrusive ads, making it difficult to recommend.
- “This is only free in the same way that adverts on YouTube and banner ads in your browser are.”
- “Just because advertisements are free, doesn't mean they're worth your time.”
- “But this is not that game, it's just an advertisement for it, and since advertisements for paid products like this chew up store space and choke off visibility that should be given to genuine amateur devs who struggle to find an audience for their games, this is almost impossible to recommend.”
