This is a genuinely relaxing game, but you essentially have to buy the $5 ad-free version for it to be enjoyable. Otherwise, you’re forced to watch a full-screen ad about every five minutes, which felt a bit excessive to me.Beyond the ads, the UI is overly aggressive. Event characters are placed right next to the gold pile, so I constantly tap them by accident. Every time I open the app, I’m met with a barrage of pop-ups, and sometimes I’m even prevented from playing until I click through event content I wasn’t interested in.I want to love this game, and I understand the developers need to make money. But I downloaded it as a relaxing, mindless game, and the constant interruptions make it feel anything but relaxing. Ironically, all the pop-ups and forced ads have made me stop watching the optional reward ads too, so I suspect the current approach might actually be costing the developers revenue. A little less advertising and a little more breathing room would go a long way.
