The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from players, who report an overwhelming number of ads that disrupt gameplay and are often required to claim rewards. Many users feel that the game has shifted from a playable experience to one dominated by ad viewing, with complaints about long ad durations and frequent crashes when attempting to watch them. Additionally, players express frustration over the perceived greed of the developers, as in-game purchases and ads seem to overshadow the actual gameplay experience.

“Too many 'watch ads' even after buying their one-time purchase which they promised, in return to remove ads.”
“Players who invested a lot in the in-game purchases and those who played the game fairly were disregarded because of cheaters who could maximize characters just by tweaking the stats.”

“I really like it; the graphics and controls are great.”
“Amazing game, good graphics, smooth UI.”
“Great game, I love the graphics and gameplay.”
“The problem is the low graphics still makes the game a little bit laggy, make it low end device friendly.”
“Disappointment 10 mins after installation: 1st - I don't like portrait orientation, 2nd - for me it looks like Roblox or Minecraft because of those block-shaped terrains and environment including grounds, 3rd - overcrowded screen icons. My eyes are still good on small icons as long as it's readable. Sorry, but that's my comment and it's up to you if you adjust your game graphics and designs in the future updates, but for now I uninstalled it.”
“Not good in graphics, not the type of game you totally enjoy. Somehow it's boring, it's easy to play more on auto-play, no thrill and needs more improvement.”
