Today, I just noticed this game was recently released Free. Hadn't played it before while it still had its $4.99 (or was it higher?) price tag, and I was still finishing Onigo Hunter. Not sure how I feel about the lack of overworld exploration that draws directly from Onigo.
So, before I consider removing ads (or just buying the premium version) is the IAP content really worth the price tag?

Um... probably not, IMO. The only IAP thing is the bonus dungeon - and it is fun, but it's pretty short and I'm not sure it gives a huge advantage in the rest of the game.
You will want the attract ring (or whatever they call it) but obviously only for grinding purposes, so it's a question of having IAP to spend versus farming IAP and using Twitter...
I suspect you'd be fine with the free version but other players may have more insight to offer.

I think it is worth the price tag but because the content, not the IAP.
There is A question about spending IAP and as you can see, there is not much to spend IAP on other than lottery, seeds, garden and extra ring slots - none of them really worth spending IAP on.

Well, I agree with that. So if you are looking for cost-benefit, it depends on how much you hate ads, or on how much you value the fact that they actually put effort to make a decent game this time*
*: Compared to some money-grabbers titles like Asdivine Hearts 2, which felt just lacking.

Well, this is one of the few games I actually don't mind buying the “ads removal” or premium.
Some other games from Kemco also have annoying ads, but they're not worth spending my money in it.
For Kemco games I use the “worth” rule instead of standard “cost-benefit”. For example, there are games where ads are really annoying, but I do not think the game deserves such purchase, so I don't. Never. I favor uninstalling it if the ads really get to me.
There are also games where ads are bearable but it is a masterpiece, so I consider buying it. I haven't played freemium Fernz Gate though, so I can't say if the ads are truly annoying (eg. Chronus Arc) or not (eg. most early Asdivine games)

I just buy the premium version of Kemco games just to show support. Haven't really touch any of the in-app items.
To be fair though, Fernz Gate is one of their more polished games so its really worth the purchase.
