The monetization in this game heavily relies on microtransactions, making it difficult for players to progress quickly without spending money. While the game is free to play, many users feel it is a cash grab, with long wait times for resources that can be bypassed through purchases. Although microtransactions are prevalent, some players note that they are not strictly necessary to enjoy the game.
- “This is a free game with in-game purchases.”
- “Not for everyone, definitely casual, and convenient - and pricey - microtransactions (although not necessary to enjoy the game). The developer is active.”

- “It's hard to get resources fast if you refuse to spend cash on microtransactions.”
- “It's just buggy and it's incredibly hard to earn resources if you're impatient and don't want to spend money on microtransactions, but I guess that is the nature of these kinds of games.”
- “Stay away from this game, it's an atrocious cash grab without any interest; you can find better that will cost you less in the end while not having you waiting over 15 minutes to craft to satisfy your first client.”
