The monetization aspect of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of ads, including unskippable and intrusive ones that disrupt gameplay. While some players appreciate the option to earn in-game currency through watching ads, many feel that the frequency and nature of the ads detract from the overall experience, making it frustrating and less enjoyable. Additionally, there are calls for better balance in earning money without relying solely on ads, as well as concerns about the appropriateness of some ad content for a game rated for all ages.
- “Plus there are no ads, unless you are getting free coins by watching them.”
- “I have to say it's a really good game but it doesn't give enough coins to renovate, and furniture and renovations are so expensive. But I really love it, even though it's hard to save money. It's a really awesome game and you don't buy things to unlock other parts of the house, and there's no ads. It's totally the best; it's one hundred percent free.”
- “If you don't care about in-app purchases, though, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.”
- “Not even optional ads, but the kinds that are invisible so when you click on the screen, it tries to get you to download an app or sends you to a sketchy website.”
- “The ads get really annoying after a while, and locking what should be basic features behind paywalls is a bit scummy.”
- “I don't mind the optional ads that can earn you coins, but when every decision you make in the game prompts an unskippable ad and gives nothing in return, it gets incredibly old incredibly quickly.”
