The game's story is minimal and largely absent, as it focuses primarily on dungeon crawling rather than narrative depth. While some players appreciate the straightforward approach typical of 90's RPGs, others express a desire for a more engaging storyline, especially given its RPG Maker roots. Overall, those seeking a rich narrative will likely be disappointed.
“The story isn't anything too remarkable, which is understandable since this is just a dungeon crawler.”
“If you're coming to this game looking for a deep story, you aren't going to find it.”
“This game gives exactly what it promises, a 90's style RPG; however, the game can be a little light on storyline.”

The game offers significant replayability thanks to its diverse character selection, allowing players to form various team combinations. However, some users find the experience can become tedious, particularly when grinding for random treasures towards the end.
“It has replayability due to the number of characters you can choose (7) and can be combined into any team of 3 or less.”
“Some replayability, but it becomes a bit boring when you're overwhelmed at the end and have to grind for random treasure to have a chance to win.”
“Replay value is through the roof.”

The game heavily revolves around grinding, which may appeal to fans of the genre but can be off-putting for others. While some players appreciate the clever ideas, those who dislike grinding may find it less enjoyable, leading to mixed ratings. Additionally, the option to teleport back to previous floors for further grinding is available for players seeking to enhance their experience.
“The essence of this game is basically grinding, and this is as grindy as it gets. However, people who enjoy that will love this game.”
“I'll still give the game 6/10 for the clever ideas, but since I'm not a fan of grinding and that's basically all this is, I can't rate it higher.”
“If you find yourself being overpowered, the game does have the ability to teleport back to previous floors for grinding.”

“The controls are clunky and unresponsive, which detracts from the overall experience.”
“There is a hint of a plotline, but it only pops up occasionally and isn't really a significant part of the gameplay.”
