  • monetization446 mentions

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of forced ads that interrupt gameplay after nearly every action, including level completions and pauses. Many players express frustration over the lack of an option to purchase an ad-free experience, leading to a perception of the game as a cash grab that prioritizes revenue over user experience. While some users appreciate the initial optional ads for rewards, the recent updates have made the ad experience unbearable, resulting in a decline in overall enjoyment and ratings.

    • “I feel like this game had potential, but it's extremely hampered by an overly aggressive monetization that makes progress difficult.”

  • grinding22 mentions

    Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessive, especially after the introduction of unskippable ads, which adds to the tedium. While some enjoy the grind as part of the gameplay experience, many express frustration over the high level of grinding required to progress, particularly in a gacha context where spending money seems necessary to advance effectively. Overall, the consensus is that while the game starts off enjoyable, it quickly becomes a grind-fest that can lead to boredom and a reliance on in-game purchases.

    • “I loved playing this game, as grindy as it was, until they added unskippable ads after every game.”
    • “The game requires a lot of grinding and the only way to really advance is to spend a lot of money on overpriced packs or be stuck on the same level for weeks at a time.”
    • “The game is fun but the level of grinding to advance is impossible.”
  • stability13 mentions

Overall, while the gameplay is enjoyable, the absence of a rich story and the high costs associated with progression detract from the game's appeal.

    • “It's fun, just need some events, and give missions, a little story wouldn't hurt, and make the gacha a little bit easier.”
    • “I'd love to see some mini games, side quests, and backstories, and or skill trees for each unit type.”
