The whole game is based on a repetitive task you perform to achieve rewards
Watching ads is basic mechanism of the game, unless you spend money
"Guilds" are a recent addition and they have member list sorted by scores aka how much you have contributed. Scoring too low will run the risk of getting you kicked out since there is not even a chat feature to explain absences, so you need to work hard to remain important.
You can buy ad-free and it's only for a limited time, so for 3 days, a week, or a month.
As of a recent update, the devs have introduced a player character that can be buffed with a hat, an outfit, and an item. The items are obtained from loot boxes that are earned on level completion or bought using diamonds which are also earned when other players use your character to help, or you can purchase diamonds.
As an idle game, grinding is inherently part of the game’s mechanics. However, the grind becomes slower over time until the player winds up doing nothing for minutes at a time to be able to level anything up even a few times. It also encourages the player to watch ads to improve their rewards.
The game does NOT contain forced ads, which is a point in its favor, but its ads-for-rewards system encourages the player to watch ads every few minutes, if not more often, to gain tiny amounts of gems, coins, or overall multipliers.
The game features different locations, which have 4-7 individual “shops” to be opened. The first few shops can be completed quickly, but the last couple in each location require regular check-ins or playing the game actively for multiple hours at a time. There are currently about 60 of these locations in-game, which break into around 300 shops, and the grinding necessary to complete them becomes harder with each new location.
You are able to spend up to $99.99 on 5.5k gems, or spend up to $12.99 on a mixture of gems and loot boxes.
You can pay for a permanent income doubler, which allows you to beat out other players in weekly contests.
