Players find the grinding aspect of the game heavily reliant on watching ads to earn necessary resources, which can become tedious and frustrating over time. While ad farming can initially aid progress, it eventually leads to limitations that may force players to spend money, making the experience feel like a chore rather than enjoyable. Overall, the reliance on ads is viewed negatively, with many recommending caution before diving into the game.
“Ads will get us some of the needed gems, so spamming ads will work for some time, but after a certain amount of 'ads farming' I find myself with an issue and can no longer watch ads, as it says 'it is not currently available', so my progress will depend on spending money.”
“I particularly dislike the ones I need to click through... tedious and irritating.”
“But ads are tedious.”
