The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating the absence of forced ads, as they can choose to watch ads for bonuses or rewards. However, numerous users expressed frustration over the frequency and length of ads, often feeling that they detract from gameplay and create a cash grab atmosphere, especially with high costs for ad removal subscriptions.

“The best thing is that the game incentivizes in-app purchases but at the same time keeps a balance that they are not an absolute necessity; it's a very hard balance to keep.”
“They do offer in-app purchases, but you don't need them to progress.”
“Definitely a fun game, easy to get into, doesn't require microtransactions to enjoy.”
“Not too bad a game but it's designed to make you watch the worst quality ads (long and requiring multiple clicks to get through) more than once a minute.”
“Yes, you will watch ads more than play.”
“The game is awesome but this is getting annoying, it sometimes lags when I'm in the middle of a game, ads often times don't give rewards after I watch them and there are times I can't watch ads for additional rewards which is a waste of resources.”
