I don’t mind ads in games. There, I said it. The developer created the game to make money and there’s no place to put a quarter in to play like an old school arcade game. That being said, it’s constantly annoying when you don’t have ads to keep a game going: more time or bomb exploding. And you have to use “gold”. Why does it sometimes have ads and sometimes not? Yes, it’s infuriating to have to watch a 30 second ad for 10 seconds of game play. I wouldn’t mind as much if you could “x” out after watching for 5 seconds. You’re still getting an impression and multiples ones at that. You’d also get longer game play and keeping player engaged.
This game is really fun if im being honest, but... Creators, you need to change something. Why is there a timer on this??? Why cant we take our time and play normally?? I know, some other people might disagree but.. PLEASE just make a game mode that makes this game not have a timer. Just so the people who like being challenged, can be! And the people who want to take their time, will be able too! Can we just make a mode in this game where there is not a timer whatsoever. This game is really fun overall though! Just... Make that game mode! Please! (Btw this is my opinion of this game it doesnt have to be yours)
I had to quit other hole games cause the Ai slop ads were the most annoying, same ones over and over and over mostly gambling and “make money” ads. I don’t mind ads but you can’t brainwash people with the same Ai slop over and over and over or you’ll go mad. Hopefully this game keeps decent shorter ads. Dear ad companies, short ads make me want to buy or use your services, long stupid Ai slop makes me never touch your product
