The monetization strategy in the game is heavily criticized for its aggressive ad placements and reliance on microtransactions, with players needing to watch numerous ads to access additional rewards. While some appreciate the cap on ad duration, many find the constant ads and the push for monthly subscriptions to skip them off-putting, leading to a negative impact on the overall experience. Despite these issues, some players still rate the game highly due to the developers' apparent care for the product.
- “Typical idle game, very enjoyable but the monetization is quite aggressive.”
- “Microtransactions being constantly present is a turn-off, though.”
- “Convoluted menus and aggressive monetization make this a hard pass.”
- “Just fact (not ranting): prepare to click on the advertisements 32 times if you want to obtain all the additional daily rewards.”
- “Be ready to buy a monthly ad skip for $5 if you want maximum daily extra rewards like dungeon tickets without watching ads.”
- “Convoluted menus, odd font choices, and aggressive monetization make this a hard pass.”
