The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the excessive and intrusive nature of advertisements. Many players express frustration over ads interrupting gameplay, particularly with mid-game ads and long, unskippable commercials that disrupt the flow of the game. While some users are willing to tolerate ads for a free experience, the overwhelming frequency and aggressive placement of ads have led to numerous complaints and even uninstalls, with many players wishing for a paid option to remove ads entirely.
“It's got more shape options, the points system feels more rewarding, there are no ads that I can't immediately close, and even those only pop up once in a while when I finish a game, and the tactile feedback is very satisfying.”
“The option to purchase to remove ads would be nice.”
“No ads to disrupt gameplay.”
“Forced ads in the middle of the puzzle are awful.”
“Ads interrupt in the middle of the puzzles, and this is not an infrequent thing.”
