The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of ads that interrupt gameplay. Many players report that even after purchasing the ad removal option, they still encounter numerous ads, including mandatory ones that hinder progress. Additionally, the game's advertising falsely claims it can be played offline, leading to frustration as players are forced to remain online to access the constant stream of ads. Overall, the excessive ad presence detracts from the gaming experience, making it feel more like a cash grab than a well-designed game.
- “Everyone is complaining about the ads.. I usually just pay for no ads, because they're annoying and I figure I don't mind supporting the dev team.”
- “It gives you the option to 'remove ads' with the purchase like most games, but what it doesn't tell you is it removes forced ads, not all ads.. kinda stupid, not gonna lie.”
- “Nice game, really fun and no ads. 10/10 would rate again.”
- “Yes, it's only $2.99 + taxes or fees to remove adverts, but if the game is designed to have broken adverts until you remove adverts, then that is BS... as well, other reviews have mentioned that buying the remove ads option does not work on all ads, which is very deceitful.”
- “The game itself isn't even bad, it's just that the ads themselves often play audio but freeze, or they crash altogether, both of which make it hard to play the game for more than a few minutes without having to reset it every few minutes.”
- “You will lose all the 'multiplayer' battles which are fake, just to force you to watch more ads to get better stuff just to lose again etc.”

- “Played for 20 minutes, 5 minutes of gameplay and 15 minutes of ads.”
