    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with users reporting an overwhelming presence of intrusive ads that often disrupt gameplay. While there is an option to pay to remove some ads, many players feel that the experience remains cluttered with advertisements, leading to frustration and a perception of the game as a "cash grab." Some users do appreciate the ability to choose certain ads, but the overall sentiment leans heavily towards dissatisfaction with the ad frequency and monetization practices.

    • “I love this app! I love that there are no ads and you can play offline. 5 stars!”
    • “The subscription fee offers great value for having more pets, no ads, and customer service.”

  • gameplay6 mentions

    The gameplay is criticized for being overly simplistic and lacking meaningful interaction, with players expressing disappointment over the limited activities available and long wait times between interactions. Many feel that the game does not justify any associated costs, suggesting that it currently offers little more than a free mode experience. Overall, the gameplay is described as basic and unsatisfying.

    • “The graphics are nice, but the gameplay is basic.”
    • “5 hr timer for 15 seconds of gameplay.”
    • “Thought this was going to be a decent game that didn't ask for ridiculous subscription payments, but sadly I was wrong. There's nothing really worth paying for; it's not like you can interact with the pet much apart from feeding them, watering them, and playing. I was expecting to be able to actually stroke the pet using my fingers and walk them, something closer to Nintendo Pets, but I was highly mistaken. I suggest not buying anything until this game actually has gameplay in it; for now, you're better off playing the free mode.”
    • “You give 10 seconds of gameplay then ask the player to wait for 5 hours for another interaction.”
    • “5-hour timer for 15 seconds of gameplay.”
