The monetization strategy of the game is widely criticized as predatory and heavily reliant on pay-to-win mechanics, with frequent cash grabs tied to events and misleading advertising about rewards. Players express frustration over the lack of genuine gameplay, excessive ads, and the feeling that the game prioritizes profit over player experience, leading many to uninstall. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as exploitative, with a significant disconnect between advertised features and actual gameplay.
- “I did splurge for no ads.”
- “Pretty predatory with every new event or anything at all always and always have paid versions for significantly better rewards. Besides, there is literally no gameplay, just doing dailies by tapping around and having to watch so many ads to get a few more rewards as a free-to-play player.”
- “All events are just cash grabs that scale your pay-to-win even higher the more you put in.”
- “Dodgy at best, usual gacha game with heavy pay-to-play and pay-to-win elements to stay competitive. It's not strategy-based; more time spent doesn't mean progress, and it's littered with cash grabs. The community is toxic, and the developers claim to focus on long-term play, but it's a lie. It ultimately equals more money to be top or competitive.”

Players express frustration with the excessive grinding required in the game, noting that while they enjoy the gacha system, the process feels tedious and often leads to a pay-to-win environment.
