The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback from users, primarily due to the excessive number of ads. Players report being bombarded with ads not only between levels but also during gameplay, often experiencing multiple ads in a single level, which significantly disrupts the gaming experience. Many users express frustration over the inability to play offline and the perception that the game prioritizes ad revenue over user enjoyment, leading to numerous uninstalls and low ratings.
- “I love this game; the only bad thing is the ads, so buying no ads is worth it!”

- “The game itself is actually a neat little puzzle game and I'm actually having fun with it... however, while I understand the need to have ads in free-to-play games while offering a payment option to disable the ads... the fact you are forced to watch an ad after every stage, even starting from the first stage, is annoyingly appalling and just makes me not want to play it... the early stages only last to about 5 seconds so that's an ad every 5 seconds... please extend the occurrence of the ads...”
- “I'm sure it gets more difficult as you get to higher levels, but the amount of ads you have to endure is simply not worth it.”
