Yes the game has a lot of ads and I'm glad I read these reviews before downloading it lol. That being said, the way the apps intervene for me I don't mind so much because of how the game plays and the game goes right back to where you were as soon as the ad is done. After playing a week or so, I'm used to it. There is a quick countdown a few seconds before the ad plays. Overall the game is addictive. Editing this a few days later with an update: the game will not stop freezing, can't play.
