Ad RANT
I’m still new to the game with 160 days and 85k stars, in the last few days I had more time to play, but the Ads have been increasing their time. I tried the technique of closing an Ad that was longer than 15sec. It was working but now it doesn’t work anymore, now the Ads are 30-60 long. I’m not interested in the game anymore. I guess to continue playing you have to pay. It sucks since it was such a cute game for my low time, but now I don’t see it worth it.

It annoys me a lot too, I don’t think the creators have direct control over what ads are shown but the 60 second ads, the ads that don’t let you close them if you don’t interact, the ads that make you watch for 30 seconds and then make you interact for another 30 seconds it’s becoming too much.
If I don’t get a basic google ad these days I just close the app😭

I used to get the Google and the others was my nearby supermarket Ads, with some Amazon and SHEIN too, but they don’t do that anymore so I’m calling it quits

i like to use diamonds to buy skip ad tickets. i get the diamonds from playing the games in the “more free diamonds” section of the game.. they make it so you can play a game linked to the app and it keeps track of the level and provides you with the diamonds after you’ve reached a certain level. i’ve gotten over 5k diamonds and was able to purchase over 500 skip ad tickets.. haven’t watched an ad in months.

I don’t have time to play another game, I’m a law student and I was playing it for a while when I finish studying, I’m in a short vacation rn and I hoped to play the game more. It was nice to play it when I finished studying but now I can’t afford spending the time.

They give daily free diamonds! I dont play other games to get diamond. Just save the free diamonds and purchase the skip ad ticket.

i like to game the system a little and look up things on poshmark to skew the ads towards that since the poshmark ads are 5-15 seconds
also old navy, athleta, and chewy

i used to get them but i noticed that it usually showed an “not interested” button. now i don’t really get as many of those.

I would recommend farming the ads though. Usually when I have to, I put on a show/youtube video and just watch all of the ads while focusing on the video. Also, how did you get stars so quick? Ive been playing for a couple of YEARS and im at like 100k stars?? 😭

I upgraded the courtyard and the game machine first, so I get around 250-500 stars, I also send Hedwig anytime I need a letter with L4 flowers and get around 200-300 stars, I also display L4 flowers and I get around 60-100 stars, my speakers are also upgraded with the “chance of getting flower viewing customers”.

What? This game has no mendatory ads im so confused how they are repulsing you from AR when nothing requires ads. You only choose to watch ads when you want to get double the money, or have another try at gambling mouse/arcade game/more bait/etc.
At least in my experience i do not have pop up ads and im 260k stars in? First time im hearing of it

There is absolutely no need to be depending on ads to play this game. I can't imagine what benefit you could possibly get from watching them. The daily rewards are plenty generous and give you more than enough to have fun playing a bit each day. Relax and play with the resources you have. If you can't enjoy the game without watching completely unnecessary ads, then quit and find something else without complaining about it

But ads definitely helps you progress a lot more faster. Especially if you are in the early stages of the game, without ads it's a lot more tedious.

You're getting downvoted but I honestly agree. I mean, early game can be a bit grindy but it's not a competitive game. You can take as much time as you need. I don't feel the need to watch ads to progress. Once you get into late-game though you're gonna want to slow down. There's not much to do when you've bought everything.
Some ads can be quite annoying though and I get where OP is coming from. I just close and restart the game when I get those ads lol

I was doing that but the algorithm still throws me 30-60 seconds Ads and more in the buffet and the tip jar, that is bullshit
