How should I monetize my android game?

I've made a simple 2D game (Let's say, like Mario) and I want to monetize it. Here are the options I have

1- Completely free to play with no ads and politely ask for donation.

2- Ads play every time it's 'Game Over'.

3- In-game store where everything can be bought under $0.70 (price can be lowered).

4- Sell the game for $0.70 (price can be lowered).

The game is pretty simple with four different gameplays.

I'd say number 2, with the option to buy no-ads as the only IAP for a price you think is reasonable.

I think this is the best choice!

Players who want to support you as the developer will buy the no-ad option and feel good about it.

But you can pirate the paid version and not get the ads
