I've put a few hours into Pokemon Shuffle now, and it's not bad. Your hearts regenerate all the time regardless of whether or not you are in the game, your 3DS is in sleep mode, or even if your 3DS is turned completely off. However, after you get to 5 hearts it won't accumulate anymore from the timer. (It may just go by the 3DS clock, I haven't tried it, but you might be able to just set the clock ahead to get all your hearts back.)
Overall, the game would be better if they didn't go with the F2P model and just made it a download-only game you pay for one time, like Pokemon Battle Trozei. But quality-wise it's a good game with a really decent amount of content. It is great as something to play for like 20 minutes while you have free time, or to take a break from some other game your playing (I've been playing it in little bursts in between Alpha Sapphire). It's kind of like the Streetpass Mii Plaza games. Fun to mess around with for a little while and then play something else.
If you are on the fence, I'd say give it a try, and then if you really hate the F2P model then just delete it. What have you got to lose?
P.S.
So far, I have spent no money on it. If you have patience and something else to play, there is really no need to (unless you just want to support Genius Sonority).
