The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the excessive frequency and length of ads, which often disrupt gameplay. Many players express frustration over being forced to watch ads after nearly every level, with some even reporting ads interrupting gameplay itself. While some users are willing to pay for an ad-free experience, the high cost and lack of a reasonable option to remove ads have led to numerous uninstalls and negative reviews, indicating that the monetization approach may be detrimental to player retention and enjoyment.
“I paid for the full version with no ads because the game is worth it!”
“I like Royal Match's system because it allows infinite playing, with no ads unless you want extra bonuses.”
“Amazing game, really enjoyed playing it, and the best part is there are no ads!”
“The game itself is fine, but you spend way more time watching ads than actually playing.”
“I understand having to watch ads in order to play a free game but 9 ads for 1 daily puzzle is insane.”

The game suffers from significant stability issues, with frequent glitches and freezes reported by users, particularly after watching ads or during gameplay. Many players have expressed frustration over having to restart the game or levels due to these interruptions, leading to a negative impact on their overall experience. While the game is enjoyable when functioning properly, the persistent stability problems have prompted some users to uninstall it.
“Example: I watch an ad, it sometimes won't finish the ad and freezes, or it finishes the ad and freezes my screen on the game, making me have to close out of the game and restart the whole level sometimes.”
“It constantly keeps on freezing mid-game, making it not worthwhile to play any race matches as it freezes and you always come last, then have to finish the remaining races to get out of race mode.”
“If the game actually worked whenever I want to play, I'd rate it 5 stars, but over 50% of the time when I start it, all I get is a black screen. It also often freezes during a level - reasons to rate it lower than I did, but while it works, I love it, so 4 rather than a lower rating.”

The music in the game is generally appreciated for its calming and enjoyable qualities, helping players relax during gameplay.

“To some, it's not a big deal, but I love listening to my own music while playing games.”

“Too many ads, which you can't mute, so it ruins it if you're listening to music or a podcast while playing.”
“Nice game, but too many annoying ads with stupid music that won't turn off.”
