“Don't see how the puzzles help the storyline.”

The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of intrusive pop-up ads that disrupt gameplay. Many players express frustration over the constant advertisements, which not only interfere with their experience but also push for in-app purchases, making the game feel more commercialized. While some users appreciate the option to earn rewards through ads, the general consensus is that the current ad frequency detracts from the enjoyment of the game.
“Great game! I would suggest this game for everyone: no ads, very interesting, a lot of fun, and keeps you on the edge of your seat.”

“It's hard to stop playing once you get started, but lately, gameplay is so often interrupted with ads for other games and pop-ups to get you to buy items that it is now almost unplayable.”
