On {{date|1 apr 2022}}, Ninja Kiwi announced the end of service for several Flash games. Despite not being one of the games listed in the announcement,<ref>{{cite|url=https://www.reddit.com/r/NinjaKiwiOfficial/comments/ttek9c/whats_up_at_ninja_kiwi_1st_april_2022/|title=What's Up At Ninja Kiwi? - 1st April, 2022|publisher=Reddit|retrieved=30 apr 2025}}</ref> the servers for this game were shut down on {{date|30 apr 2022}}, rendering the game's online features inaccessible.
