The monetization strategy of the game primarily revolves around optional ads that players can choose to watch for in-game currency and bonuses, which many find beneficial. However, a significant number of users express frustration over the frequency and necessity of ads for progression, with some feeling that the game leans heavily on a pay-to-win model. While some players appreciate the lack of forced ads and the ability to purchase an ad-free experience, others criticize the high cost of removing ads and the technical issues that often prevent rewards from being granted after watching ads.
- “Wonderful game, though I paid 17€ to have no ads, all the paid 'characters' and 2000 gems - I knew that was the amount of money I would pay for this game if it was on the Switch, and I have not regretted my choice at all!”
- “100% worth it to buy the no ads.”
- “No ads, also you can get paid currency if you play correctly.”
- “The monetization system is killing the experience.”
- “You have to spend real money or you have to watch many ads.”
- “The entire game is built around you needing to watch ads to make any reasonable increase in money for upgrades to make any progression.”

- “And the gameplay isn't unique, so it's up to you to decide if you'll play.”
- “Gameplay is slow, but it's an idle game, so it's to be expected.”
- “Interesting concept, but it should never have had all the options from the beginning, and should have gradually built up the requirements so the players can get used to all the complex and very confusing mechanics.”

- “Good game, enjoyable story as well.”
- “Great game tbh but one thing I would change for the people that don't like spending money on games is the amount of time for the offline manager, make it more than 1 hour or do quests to earn minutes for the offline manager.”
- “Has missions every weekend which is fun and challenging.”
- “I would give 5 stars but I don't like how you changed the game so that I have to actually be in the specific hospital that I'm trying to finish my missions in... I end up spending way more time in the game than I used to and still can't get them completed.”

The music in the game receives mixed reviews; while some players appreciate the quality and detail of the soundtrack, others express frustration with intrusive ads that disrupt their listening experience. Additionally, there are technical issues reported where the in-game music fails to play despite being enabled. Overall, the music is a highlight for many, but the ad experience significantly detracts from it.
- “Love the music, for one.”
- “Really good detail and animations also, gotta love the song classic 👍”
- “Game is fantastic; however, there is a problem with the music. I turn on the music, but it's not working even though it's on.”
- “It would be 3 stars if the ads respected having the app sound off. I can't listen to my music or audiobooks while playing because most ads blast me with immutable sound. There is also no organic way to increase your offline time; even if I had to watch 50 ads to get 15 minutes extra, it'd be okay, but even one extra hour is only achievable by paying.”
grinding

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be somewhat excessive but still enjoyable. They suggest quality-of-life improvements, such as a dedicated tab for tracking room upgrade levels, to alleviate the tedium of managing upgrades. Overall, there is a call for better implementation in future tycoon games to enhance the grinding experience.
- “A bit too grindy but entertaining. Edit: since the developer replied, I'll give more detail.”
- “Could use a quality of life change and have a tab that shows you the upgrade level of each room in your hospital so you can easily see if any rooms are missing upgrades without scrolling through all of them, which is fairly tedious.”
- “If you're going to make another money-grinding tycoon game, then do it properly.”
