The monetization strategy of the game heavily relies on ads, with many players expressing frustration over the necessity to watch numerous ads to progress or earn in-game currency. While some appreciate the option to watch ads for rewards, others feel that the game becomes tedious and overly focused on ad revenue, leading to a grindy experience. In-app purchases to remove ads are considered expensive, and many users report issues with ad functionality, further complicating the gameplay experience.
