The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback from users, primarily due to the excessive number of ads that interrupt gameplay. Many players report being forced to watch ads after nearly every level, which significantly detracts from their overall enjoyment and engagement with the game. While some users understand the need for ads in free games, the frequency and length of these ads have led to frustration and, in many cases, uninstallation of the app.

“I love this game because it's easy and has no ads. It's the best game ever!”
“Just turn off the internet and no ads, then you can have fun with the game.”
“I can't play a 10 second level without getting a 10-25 second advertisement.”
“So I basically spend more time watching ads than I do playing the game.”
“The ads serve no purpose to the player, can't be skipped and are all 30 or more seconds long after max 3 levels, making ad time greater than play time.”

Make sure you spam whatever you're playing it on with clicks and keep your fingers crossed it doesn't take the rest of the year to respond. Bad graphics - on one of the levels you have to make a leaf, it turns out to be pink when in reality they are green/red in autumn. Ads - way too many, seem obsessed with putting 30-second ones in.”
“Way too many ads but the graphics are okay; after 200+ it gets really bad.”
“Terrible, too many ads after one level, poor graphics.”
