The monetization strategy of the game primarily revolves around optional ads that players can choose to watch for rewards, which many users appreciate as it doesn't interrupt gameplay. However, some players report issues with unclosable ads that can disrupt the experience, leading to frustration. While in-app purchases exist, particularly for ad removal, the general sentiment is that the game offers a balanced approach to monetization, allowing for enjoyment without mandatory spending.
“No ads until you want to watch ads for rewards, which is good, and rewards after watching a 30-second ad are pretty amazing.”
“Fun, challenging, and so far from my experience; there have been no ads unless you want to unlock a cheat faster.”
“This is a great game! I really enjoyed it; it has no ads and is free. I think it's a very good game.”
“The only reason I give 3 stars is due to some of the ads that don't have an exit button, so you just keep ending up trying to download and install it, which gets very annoying having to shut the game off and restart.”
“There are several ads that do not provide an exit button and disable the return button on the phone, therefore you have to close down the app entirely and you're not awarded for watching the ad either.”
“This undeniably makes the game unplayable when these ads do occur, and this should be addressed by the developers. I will update my review if the intrusiveness of the ads in this app is fixed.”
