The monetization strategy of this game has been widely criticized for its excessive and intrusive ad placements, with players reporting that they spend more time watching ads than actually playing. Many users expressed frustration over the misleading "no ads" purchase, which only removes certain ads while still requiring players to watch numerous ads for rewards and progression. Overall, the game is perceived as a cash grab, prioritizing ad revenue over user experience, leading to a negative reception from players.
“The no ads option for $2.99 isn't worth it.”
“I purchased the no ads for 2.99 and still getting those annoying ads!!”
“Paid for no ads and still get adverts; a right con, not happy.”
“The ads in this game are unbearable; there were times when my phone would turn off, and when I'd reopen the app, an ad would immediately play. I've probably watched hundreds of ads while playing this.”
“I paid for the ad removal feature, but I still have to watch ads after every level. It's misleading and frustrating.”
“This game is designed to require you to watch ads in order to advance. You spend more time watching ads than actually playing the game.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be arbitrary and tedious, with repetitive gameplay across limited maps leading to frustration. Many report significant time investment without meaningful rewards, and some have experienced progress resets that feel intentional, contributing to a perception of the developers as exploitative. Overall, the grinding is seen as a major detractor, making the game feel more like a money grab than an enjoyable experience.
“I paid money just to see if the difficulty would ever get higher (boy do I regret it!) The game never changes, and after 200 levels with the same 5 maps, it gets tedious.”
“Complete scam... I needed 900k coins, got to 840k after 6 hours a day for a week grinding, and woke up to my stats reset to 0. I have documentation but no one will contact me back about what happened. I went ahead and earned the remaining 60k needed, but the reward never unlocked. Resetting progress after that close makes me think it's intentional.”
“These developers are truly money hungry. They make the worst games I've ever played; it's not hard, it's tedious, and so boring.”
