ads constantly lock up, and are long. in game purchase purchase purchase popups get annoying. – Angry Birds 2 Review

advertisement videos are optional in order to obtain free items in the game, such as arena tickets or daily free treasure chests. these ads feel long to me, for a game id usually play in stolen moments. even at that, a huge percentage of these ads lock up on their end screen, where you can “X” out to claim the reward- thus requiring you to reboot the game, and watch another video. given that this is a well designed touch screen game, this feels deliberate to me, which drives me away from the free items, and without them, it makes it much harder to compete and enjoy the game without throwing money at it (which is is why it feels engineered to have this problem). in game purchase requests are understandable in a free game, but the pop ups here are constant as well. these issues seriously undermine joy in the game. id rather pay for the amazing game to opt out of the ads. wish there was a version for that! otherwise, game play itself is super fun and addictive.
