The monetization strategy of this game has been heavily criticized for its excessive and intrusive ad placements, with players reporting that they spend significantly more time watching ads than actually playing. Many users expressed frustration over the inability to escape ads even after purchasing the "no ads" option, leading to a perception of the game as a cash grab rather than a genuine gaming experience. Overall, the overwhelming presence of ads has made the game largely unplayable for many, overshadowing any potential enjoyment from the gameplay itself.
โI paid for no ads, but it does nothing.โ
โPaid for no ads and they still show up everywhere.โ
โPaid for no ads... I still got ads.โ
โYou spend more time watching ads than playing the game.โ
โThe sheer amount of ads... the moment you open the game=ad, you start a level=ad, you pick a weapon in said level=ad, you finish the level=ad, you go to the main menu=ad, you sit idle for like 15 seconds=ad.โ
โIt's a cash grab. The amount of gameplay to ads is ridiculous, especially since the gameplay is so idiotically simple the levels only take like 20-30 seconds before having to watch multiple to do it again overall terrible game.โ

The gameplay is widely criticized for being excessively simplistic and repetitive, often lasting only seconds before being interrupted by long, frequent ads. Many users report that the amount of time spent watching ads far exceeds actual gameplay, leading to frustration and a lack of enjoyment. While some find the game fun in short bursts, the overwhelming presence of ads and shallow mechanics detract significantly from the overall experience.
โThe gameplay is fun enough, but the time watching ads outnumbers the time playing the game.โ
โGreat game, good gameplay; I love this game.โ
โYou actually get to experience the gameplay seen in the ads.โ
โThe amount of gameplay to ads is ridiculous, especially since the gameplay is so idiotically simple the levels only take like 20-30 seconds before having to watch multiple ads to do it again. Overall, terrible game.โ
โMore ad time than actual gameplay.โ
โFull of ads, you don't even experience any gameplay, don't waste your time.โ

The humor in the game is widely appreciated, with many users finding it hilarious and entertaining, particularly due to its quirky animations and sound effects, such as the "amogus drip theme." However, the overwhelming presence of ads detracts from the experience, leading to mixed feelings about the overall enjoyment. Despite some criticisms regarding content and gameplay, the game's comedic elements resonate well with players, making it a fun, albeit frustrating, experience.
โHilariously unplayable, this game has a great sense of humor and fun style for a simple puzzle game.โ
โAnd the most hilarious bit is how when you win a level the amogus drip theme plays.โ
โIt's very funny & attractive game ๐๐๐๐๐นโค๏ธ๐โ
โIt's not funny.โ
โI gave 4 stars because I think this game will give me fun and happiness, but I hope there are no ads in this game. I know that having ads is not funny because it wastes my time. That's all, thank you!โ

The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the unique 2.5D art style and expressive features, while others criticize the visuals as poor or basic. Many users note issues with clipping and a lack of detail, alongside complaints about excessive ads detracting from the experience. Overall, while some find the graphics enjoyable and entertaining, there is a consensus that improvements are needed.
โDumeez nuts love the art style and expressive features in this masterpiece of a game.โ
โVery entertaining and the graphics are spot on.โ
โThis game is super awesome; the graphics and everything.โ
โArt style isn't exactly 2D but 2.5D and can be disorienting when you're fighting Huggy Wuggy from Poppy's Playtime or Montgomery Gator from FNAF, and they clip into the floor upon dying.โ
โLousy graphics.โ
โIt needs better graphics and also it needs way taller towers.โ

The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with some players expressing frustration over the inability to turn it off before encountering ads. Many noted that the game features music that is heavily inspired by or directly taken from other popular games, particularly the "Among Us" theme, which has led to complaints about originality. While some players find the music enjoyable, others describe it as annoying or cringe-worthy, impacting their overall experience.
โIt's so fun when you're playing and listening to music.โ
โSus, the music is so weird, but okay, I like this game so much.โ
โIt has good graphics and is fun (but there is a cringe Among Us song in there), so that's why it's a 4/5.โ
โThe first thing I did was go into the options to turn the music off, and before I could toggle anything on or off, there was an ad!โ
โThis is the first time ever I got an ad before I even turned the music off.โ
โThis game has stolen characters from other games and also they literally stole the music from Among Us and looped that one part of the song as one of their victory music.โ

The story aspect of the game is overshadowed by an overwhelming number of ads, which detracts from the overall experience. Players express a desire for more engaging missions and a coherent narrative, as the repetitive nature of tasks and constant interruptions from advertisements leave little room for meaningful storytelling. Overall, while there is potential for an interesting story, it is largely unfulfilled due to the game's ad-centric design.
โI love the fact about the storyโ
โTo make this even better is the mission that is literally watch 7 ads and then wait to gather coins while getting ads every 7 seconds.โ
โThere's way too many ads; you can't do anything without having to watch an ad. Pick a weapon at the start of the level, watch an ad, collect a reward after the mission, watch an ad, build most of the castle, watch ads for each piece that isn't coin-locked. Most of my time spent on that game was wasted watching 30-second long ads, and clearing the level took no more than 20 seconds, so that's a minute and 20 seconds just to get through each level.โ
โLots of ads, same missions over and over, false advertisements.โ

The game's stability is frequently criticized due to frequent freezes and glitches, particularly during ad displays, which can lead to forced reboots. While some users report that turning off Wi-Fi can mitigate ad-related issues, the overall experience is marred by persistent bugs that detract from gameplay.
โThen, to top off your ad binge, the last ad freezes the game, causing a reboot.โ
โI can no longer complete levels as the game freezes.โ
โIt really annoys me a lot, and about the glitches... they are kind of bad, too many for me!โ

The reviews indicate that the game's optimization significantly enhances its performance, particularly in arithmetic calculations. However, the feedback is somewhat muddled, suggesting that while there are improvements, the specifics of these enhancements are not clearly articulated. Overall, users seem to appreciate the performance-oriented adjustments made in the game.
โImproves arithmetical performanceโ
โThe optimization in this game is severely lacking, leading to frustrating performance issues.โ
โI expected better optimization; the game often lags and crashes, making it unplayable at times.โ
โDespite its potential, the poor optimization ruins the overall experience, causing frequent stutters and frame drops.โ
