The reviews indicate that grinding is a significant aspect of the game, often requiring extensive time investment or financial expenditure to progress, especially during difficulty spikes. While some players find the grind enjoyable and manageable, others feel it becomes tedious and repetitive, with minimal rewards for the effort. Overall, the game is described as grindy, with a mix of fun battles and resource farming, but it may not appeal to those who dislike prolonged grinding for incremental improvements.
- “This quickly became one of my favorite games, and the difficulty is right in the middle, so it's not too grindy but it's not mind-numbingly easy either.”
- “I spent about the price of a retail game in my first month to give myself a start, but I am at the point now where I would need to easily spend ten times that to get past the latest difficulty spike or literally wait months farming the daily freebies, and that's only up until the next spike comes along.”
- “You simply can't finish the game without spending a lot of money unless you are willing to spend at least a couple of years grinding the required resources to upgrade/evolve/level up your waifus, which is not worth the time and money for this type of lame turn-based RPG game.”
- “Game is about as grindy and mind-numbing as you would expect from these sorts of games.”

The monetization in this game is heavily criticized for being aggressive and predatory, typical of gacha games, with numerous microtransactions that create significant paywalls and pressure players to spend real money to progress. While some players find it manageable without spending, many express frustration over the relentless monetization tactics and view the game as a cash grab lacking genuine content and passion. Overall, the consensus is that while the game has potential, its monetization strategy detracts significantly from the experience.

- “A nice fun free-to-play game that doesn't seem too greedy for the microtransactions.”
- “No ads is amazing and you can get far even if you never spend money.”
- “If the game kept on going, and didn't artificially create barriers via enemy difficulty spiking, forcing you to wait and do daily objectives, or spend money, I'd give this game a thumbs up... but it's too predatory in its monetization for me to give it that.”
- “Tdlr - this is the most aggressive and largest cash grab game I have ever played, and it even makes wargaming games like World of Tanks look reasonable in comparison.”
- “Personally, I don't recommend this game due to the heavy monetization/frequent paywalls, the lackluster tactical combat, and the damn 'exclusive deal' spam.”
