The monetization strategy of this game heavily relies on an overwhelming number of ads, with players reporting that they spend significantly more time watching ads than actually playing. Many users express frustration over the frequency and length of these ads, often encountering them after every level or even after each attempt, leading to a diminished overall experience. While some players understand the need for ads in free games, the excessive and intrusive nature of the ads in this game has prompted numerous complaints and even uninstalls.
“I understand this is a free game with no in-app purchases, so you need to make money somehow; however, it's awful to have an ad after every round.”
“It's a good game to pass the time, but it's not ad-free as their advertisement claims. After every two levels, an ad will pop up.”
“I gave 5 stars because you can turn off your Wi-Fi and no ads will pop up.”
“You will be watching ads for literally more time than you will be playing the game.”
“The sheer amount of ads on this is disgusting... I spend more time watching ads than I do actually playing the game.”
“I understand that ads help pay for the game and allows the creators to make a profit, but deceiving people just to get downloads or ratings should earn a ban from the marketplace.”

The game suffers from significant stability issues, with frequent glitches and freezes reported by users, particularly during gameplay and when ads are displayed. Many players experience game-breaking bugs at various levels, requiring them to restart the app to continue. Overall, while some find the game enjoyable, the persistent technical problems detract from the experience.
“The game is decent but too many glitches. I got to the 4th level and every level after that I can't just click next; I have to restart the app, which is very annoying.”
“This game is super lame but it's okay to kill time with. It also freezes up in some of the video ads, going to a black screen without any way of exiting out of them without closing the game and going back into it. There's a glitch in level 164 that prevents you from completing that level, so until that's fixed, give it up; there's no way to win it.”
“Could be a good game but for the fact it freezes on every level.”
