Frustrated

Recent user voice shows a frustrated sentiment. Users appreciate satisfying core destruction mechanics provide a therapeutic and engaging time-killer experience for casual players and visual feedback during castle destruction creates a rewarding sense of impact for the player, but report excessive ad frequency post-update forces long interruptions that degrade the core gameplay experience and removal of character sprites from the cannon and castle walls reduces the game charm.
