The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback from users, primarily due to the excessive frequency of forced ads, which interrupt gameplay every 30 to 60 seconds. Many players express frustration over the intrusive nature of these ads, often feeling that they spend more time watching ads than actually playing the game. Additionally, the price to remove ads, typically around $10, is viewed as exorbitant for a game of this nature, leading to a significant number of uninstalls and low ratings. Overall, while some players appreciate the option to watch ads for bonuses, the overwhelming presence of forced ads has significantly detracted from the gaming experience.

The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with frequent reports of freezing, crashing, and glitches, particularly after updates or when interacting with ads.

- “Runs great, oddly satisfying!”
- “I was going to give an updated review of the game since I can actually get into it now, but since I lost all of my gameplay and all purchases to date, I will warn everyone away from this game unless things are made right.

However, since the last update 3 days ago, I am no longer able to log into the game; it just freezes on the startup screen.”
- “Enjoyable game, but paying $10 to remove the ads only to have constant glitches is frustrating.”
- “This game used to be fun, but now it constantly freezes. I want my money back; when I play, the game glitches and resets, taking me all the way back to the start. It happens every time.”

- “I'm in the bamboo forest... I work my way up to 95% completion grinding nonstop towards a level 12 cart, but the app begins to freeze like a scratched CD until it was unplayable. I close the app and reopen it, only to find I'm back at 0% completion in the bamboo forest. I nearly threw my phone after grinding for 2 straight hours for it to disappear.”
- “Could be a fun little time waster, but the relentless and tedious ad interruptions make this game unplayable.”

- “Superb excellent performance and good.”
- “Game used to be fun, in a time-wasting way — a newer update: a) broke timed chests, which now never open and are eternally counting down; b) made the cars drop significantly more dust, severely slowing game performance; c) mucked up money/value of dust — the first couple go-rounds give you extraordinary amounts of money, with value decreasing with each loop; d) one update added items to add bonuses, but another one changed the bonuses, so now without bonuses dust is worth practically nothing.”
- “Previous performance issues were addressed, but now when I launch the game I get blocked by a message to check my internet connection.”

replayability
2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

The game's replayability is hindered by frequent mandatory pop-up ads, which detract from the overall experience and discourage players from returning. While the game has potential, the ad interruptions significantly lower its appeal for repeated play.
- “The replay value is low; it's not really worth even playing offline to avoid ads.”
- “It's a cool game, but the mandatory pop-up ads every 60 seconds are frustrating. If they could lessen the frequency just a bit, the game would be way more enjoyable and players would stick around.”
