It fits into the category of an f2p or gotcha game.
Sometimes, in these games you can play at no expense and
simply opt out of those parts that would cost you real money.
I have read a lot of audience reviews, and it's clear that virtually
nothing about this game is free. It's all based on advertising trickery
and the greed for real world money. The developer / publisher
Trion Worlds will do anything to get into your bank account.
