Players find that achieving 100% completion in the game requires significant grinding, particularly for tasks like purchasing all helicopters, as the coin rewards from main stages are insufficient for this goal.
“Some achievements are pretty grindy, like buying all of the helicopters.”
“If you're looking to 100% it, you'll spend the majority of your time farming coins to buy all the helicopters, as completing all the main stages gives nowhere near enough coins.”
