This is becoming more common nowadays. Earlier it was a tiny "x" now you can't even see the actual button.

I simply uninstall the app or the game whenever I get a full screen ad. Getting a full screen ad or an automatically sound enabled ad is not my thing.

Or just don't use proprietary software in the first place. You know what doesn't ship with ads? Software on F-droid

They're hoping you miss the actual x to close the ad and instead trigger it.

I hate these types of ads too, and they're so common.

Also there are some ads which make the normal 5sec skippable video ads more like 30sec skippable ads. They're usually game ads, where they show you a skippable ad after 5 seconds, then they make you play a mini-game of sorts for 10+ seconds and then it shows you a splash screen with the name of the game which you're only able to skip after 5 seconds. Wastes so much time.
