The monetization of the game is heavily criticized, particularly in the mobile version, which is plagued by excessive ads and mandatory in-app purchases to unlock levels and features. While the PC version eliminates in-app purchases, it is seen as lacking content, leading to disappointment among players who hoped for a more complete experience. Overall, both versions are viewed unfavorably in terms of value for money.
“This version of the game doesn't have any in-app purchases.”
“The monetization model is fair and doesn't pressure players to spend money.”
“I appreciate that the game offers a complete experience without requiring additional purchases.”
“As a self-proclaimed Rolling Sky mobile player, I'll say that when I heard I could play the game on Steam on my PC, I thought 'at last, I can buy the game and stop playing with the free version with 69 ads per millisecond.' Today, when I bought it, it turned out to be exactly what I was thinking, but at what cost?”
“As a veteran mobile player of this, I was really excited to see Rolling Sky on Steam since the main reason I quit the mobile version was because it was unplayable due to the insane amount of ads and having to pay to unlock levels, use checkpoints, and have an unlimited amount of attempts.”
“I would not recommend purchasing this for either PC or mobile (it's free on mobile but you get spammed with ads every second, have to pay to unlock levels, use checkpoints, and even just play attempts) since the PC version lacks content and the mobile version is pay-to-win.”

The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with some users expressing disappointment over the removal of levels featuring copyrighted songs, which they felt contributed significantly to the experience. However, the original music included in the game is praised as being very enjoyable.
“Super nice music”
“All the levels with copyrighted songs are removed, which is a massive shame considering that those make up about half of the content.”
“The original soundtrack is forgettable and lacks the energy needed to enhance the gameplay experience.”
“The music feels repetitive and uninspired, making it hard to stay engaged during longer play sessions.”
