    259 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, who report an overwhelming number of forced ads that disrupt gameplay, often occurring every 30 seconds or less. Many players express frustration over the ineffectiveness of the paid ad-free option, which does not eliminate the frequent interruptions, leading to a perception that the game prioritizes ad revenue over user experience. Overall, the excessive ads have resulted in a negative impact on gameplay enjoyment, with several users recommending against downloading the game due to its monetization practices.

    • “I'm the type to pay for no ads, but only for games where I want to support the creators.”
    • “I really liked the game, even bought a hero and the no ads pack.”
    • “Keep up the good work, it has potential, but after you buy the no ads pack there should be no ads and you could get the better rewards for free, without having to watch any ads.”
    • “The only way to get more is to do multiple raids or watch ads at the end of the raids.”
    • “I couldn't even tell you if this game is any good; I built 2 buildings so far and have dealt with 10 forced ads. Every 60 seconds there's a forced ad... it makes it impossible to tell if it is even a good game or not.”
    • “This game is a money grab and advertisement spammer and only lasts about 30-45 minutes before you are stuck on an endless loop gathering materials for a boat.”
  • story
    25 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story of the game features a cute premise centered around building a boat and completing quests, but players express frustration over repetitive missions and excessive advertisements that disrupt gameplay. Many users report that despite reaching 100% completion on the boat, they are forced to repeat quests endlessly, leading to boredom and dissatisfaction with the overall experience. While the storyline has potential, the overwhelming presence of ads and bugs significantly detracts from the enjoyment.

    • “Nice storyline.”
    • “Story is cute but a ridiculous amount of ads!”
    • “Story is interesting.”
    • “The never-ending boat repair: you get to 100%, but it just keeps telling you to get more stuff through the quests you have done before over and over again. I'm so bored now.”
    • “Game has great potential, but between doing the same mission over 30 times right at the beginning plus commercials every 15 seconds, it got boring real quick.”
    • “Worst game ever on the Play Store! Waste of time. The boat is at 100%, but I still can't ride it. I keep doing the same quest item for the 100% boat over and over again.”
