The monetization strategy of this game has drawn significant criticism from users, who report an overwhelming number of ads that often exceed the actual gameplay time. Many players express frustration over mandatory ads after every level, with some stating that they spend more time watching ads than playing the game itself. Even those who have paid for an ad-free experience continue to encounter ads, leading to a perception of the game as a cash grab rather than a genuine gaming experience.

“Paid for no ads because $1.99 isn't bad and the game is endless fun.”
“Make it to where there are no ads at all, but you can watch an ad to get more loot.”
“You spend more time watching ads than actually playing the game.”
“The ads are longer than the levels in this game, and there is a mandatory one after each level and optional ones to unlock content.”
“This game could be one of the more fun and good ones if it wasn't for the sheer amount of ads they shove down our throats after every level.”
