Monetization in the game is heavily criticized due to the frequency and length of ads, with many players expressing frustration over unskippable and inappropriate advertisements, particularly for a children's game. While some users appreciate the option to watch ads for bonuses or to play for free, the overwhelming consensus is that the ads disrupt gameplay and can be intrusive, leading to uninstalls despite the game's enjoyable aspects. A few players are willing to pay for an ad-free experience, but the pricing and ad management have been points of contention.

“Love the game but not the ads.”
“This application exists for the sole purpose of in-app purchases, without which it is nearly unplayable.”
“Unfortunately, today I started getting those long, full-screen, unstoppable ads.”

“There's no glitches; it's wonderful.”
“Was tricked into downloading this awful, glitchy, buggy, boring game by getting an ad on another game saying I needed to download a new version of the one I was playing.”
“Starting on the first scene, fifth game... the game freezes, the board flickers, the game is not responsive, closes out on its own... bad enough I have to deal with ads... I'm not going to keep trying to play a game that doesn't want to be played.”
“It takes a ridiculously long time to load, it glitches and can crash easily, and most shockingly, when I went ahead to try and purchase additional levels (because I thought well it actually is fun), the purchase full version buttons are totally unresponsive.”

The music in the game receives mixed feedback; while some players appreciate its charm and find it enhances the experience, others express frustration over the inability to fully mute it, particularly during ads. Suggestions for improvement include using original compositions instead of stock music and enhancing the overall audio experience to better complement the game's visuals. Overall, the option to turn off music is welcomed, but many players still find the sound effects intrusive.
“I feel like with some slightly updated art (not that it's bad! just maybe something more stylized and memorable, I guess? it's cute!) and maybe some custom, non-Kevin MacLeod music, this game would be insanely popular!”
“It's so adorable... wonderful graphics and nice music... it would be nice if more levels and more worlds are added to it.”
“I have the music and sound turned off for a reason.”
“I can't seem to play it with music.”
“I went to settings on the game and silenced the music note, but it still plays the sound effects.”
