The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating the absence of intrusive ads and the option to watch ads for rewards. However, several users criticize the aggressive push towards in-app purchases, particularly as the game progresses, leading to a perception of it being a cash grab. While some find the monetization fair and manageable, others feel that the reliance on microtransactions and the difficulty spikes create a frustrating experience that necessitates spending money to advance.
- “However, the game is refreshing because there are no ads to watch unless you want to.”

- “From the hard paywall to the never-ending popups to buy this pack or that pack, this is clearly a cash grab game focused on draining your account, one microtransaction at a time.”

- “It's a clear case of a trash game with good advertising; everything about the game is just a money trap and pure BS.”

stability

The stability of the game is a significant concern among users, with many reporting frequent glitches, freezing issues, and unresponsive features that hinder gameplay. While some players have experienced minimal issues, the overall consensus highlights a frustrating prevalence of bugs, particularly during battles and with ad functionality. Despite occasional positive experiences, the game's stability issues have led to dissatisfaction and calls for improvements from the developers.
- “Wouldn't say it's perfect since I had a few odd glitches like my snake suddenly disappearing while fighting a boss and having to restart.”
- “I would put it up higher in the stars but the endless tower store only wants to work on its own time. I was able to get in before the rewards and now I can't. I've uninstalled twice and still nothing. The free ad rewards don't want to load, so there are some serious glitches in the game. If a lot of the features aren't working, once they get fixed and work all the time, I will change my review, but for now it's okay.”
- “So I got an answer from the developers about my last review and again nothing was done. They answered nothing and the message was definitely a robot or else something is seriously wrong. This game is a money pit of nothing but glitches and faults. If you want to play for fun, then don't bother. It's all money, money, money. The game developers will not answer you when you experience glitches and/or faults.”
