It just shows half the basics, whereas most of the game has advanced recipe mechanics that leave you confused and dying a lot trying to learn it further, which is rather annoying to the point some players might want to just rage quit.”
“Couldn't even get past the tutorial because the swiping mechanic does not work.”
“The mechanics to control the character are impossible.”

The monetization model of the game has received mixed reviews, with players expressing frustration over the prevalence of microtransactions despite having already paid for the game. Many users suggest that the game should adopt a free-to-play model with optional in-app purchases to attract more players, as the current system feels exploitative. Additionally, there are calls for better advertising to increase player interactions and community engagement.
“The reason it's 3 stars is because of the microtransactions. You have to pay for each server you create, pay to see the full family tree, and pay for almost everything!”
“My only criticism is that I just paid a fiver for the game, yet there are still in-app purchases for a few things. They're not exactly overly important, but it feels a bit frustrating. Other than that, it's pretty nice.”
“The reason it's 3 stars is because of the microtransactions. Gotta pay for each server you make, gotta pay to see the full family tree, gotta pay for almost everything!”
“Look, I'm not telling you how to run your business, but if you want more people to play the game, make it free with in-app purchases like everyone else.”
“It's an amazing game, but I think it's pretty stupid to have in-app purchases for a game that is purchased.”
