“Really charming, fun, smooth gameplay, overall great art and aesthetic.”
“I would suggest a pacing adjustment to more slowly introduce elements of gameplay alongside actual gameplay demonstrations of how to use each function and currency.”

The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the frequency and length of ads, which often disrupt gameplay and can lead to crashes. While some users appreciate the option to purchase an ad-free experience and find the in-game currency rewards reasonable, others criticize the game for being heavily reliant on ads and in-app purchases, labeling it as a cash grab. Overall, the balance between monetization and user experience appears to be a significant concern among players.
“I ended up getting the no ads pass, which was worth it to continue progress faster.”
“Monetization types in the game include gacha style, season pass, pay to skip, and daily/weekly/monthly packages with increasing value.”
“The lower rating is because after watching ads to do stuff in the game, there is no way to close them out half the time.”
“What really bothered me is that you have to pay to remove ads permanently (7.99 CAD which isn't the worst thing, I don't typically mind ads all that much).”
“Just another 'nothing' game poorly designed to get you to sit through ads and buy a season pass.”
