The gameplay features a variety of damage over time effects, each with unique mechanics, allowing for engaging and dynamic battles as multiple statuses can affect opponents simultaneously. However, the game is criticized for its resemblance to Pokémon, incorporating frustrating mechanics like item-based evolution that may encourage in-game purchases.
- “There are a lot of damage over time statuses like burning, poison, bleeding, and electrocuted. Each of them has a unique damage calculation mechanic, and all of them can happen at the same time. It's really fun to see your opponent taken down by multiple DOT effects.”
- “Adorimon is a cheap Pokémon clone that seems to copy annoying mechanics like natures and adds additional ones, such as needing items to make any Adorimon evolve, which is likely intended to coax players into spending money.”
