The monetization strategy of the game has been heavily criticized as a cash grab, with accusations of the developer using a low-effort template and misleading tactics to flood Steam with subpar titles. Users report that the game is part of a pattern of asset flips, often bundled in cheap deals shortly after release, and is supported by fake reviews to manipulate perceptions.
