The gameplay of "Antimatter Dimensions" is widely praised for its intricate mechanics and engaging progression system, which introduces new elements at a steady pace, keeping the experience fresh and rewarding. Players appreciate the balance between active and idle gameplay, with many noting the depth and complexity of the mechanics that require strategic planning and optimization. However, some users express frustration with time walls and the need for guides to navigate certain challenges, indicating that while the game is rich in content, it can also become tedious at times.
- “I treat this title as the golden example of how to design an idle game - with progression that introduces new mechanics and new interactions, while iterating on the original loop.”
- “The game's depth is revealed through its multiple layers of prestige mechanics, challenges, and complex systems that require careful planning and optimization.”
- “An excellent idle game that is constantly introducing new and unique mechanics that prevent the gameplay from ever being stale for too long.”
- “I find this one very drawn out, somewhat repetitive (currently gathering the first dozen eternity points and there's one particular infinity challenge that I can't be bothered to repeat, as it requires too much manual intervention) and it's losing my interest, as I expected newer mechanics to unlock a bit faster at this rate.”
- “Big con is eventually realizing some complex number mechanics were not always intuitive, as it's hard to compare what makes numbers go up the best in the stack of complex interleaving functions; thus going to a guide for reasonable progression (x10 - x100 gains, or even progress locks if you don't do exactly what is wanted) which takes away from the experience.”
- “No new mechanic was introduced from the one you start with that can distract you from the absurd monotony of the gameplay.”

The humor in the game is a mixed bag, with many players enjoying the quirky news ticker and funny achievements that add personality to the idle gameplay. While some find the humor dated or reminiscent of old internet memes, others appreciate the cleverness and self-awareness of the jokes, making it a unique experience. Overall, the humor contributes significantly to the game's charm, though opinions vary widely on its effectiveness.
- “The dev’s sense of humor (and self-awareness) gives the game a personality, too — especially when it starts to joke about your addiction to watching numbers increase.”
- “The news ticker is pretty funny and well done.”
- “It's fun, the 5 hours are worth the wait, and has 2016-2020 humor jam-packed into this end-of-2022 release.”
- “The game is pretty boring and the memes are very unfunny.”
- “The references are very unfunny and picked off of 2012 Reddit.”
- “Most of the achievements, as well as most 'news ticker' messages are unfunny memes and pop-culture references from 2016 that you'd find on Reddit and YouTube back in the day.”

The graphics of the game are predominantly simplistic and minimalistic, often described as basic or nearly non-existent, which aligns with its focus on gameplay rather than visual appeal. While some players appreciate the efficiency of the design in conveying the core mechanics of "number go up," others find the UI overwhelming and lacking in aesthetic depth. Overall, the graphics serve the game's purpose but may not satisfy those seeking a visually rich experience.
- “Despite simplistic graphics, its intriguing concept and engaging progression system make it a standout.”
- “What makes antimatter dimensions so compelling is its simple yet addictive gameplay, stunning graphics, and deep strategic elements.”
- “The art style and design of the game are quite pleasing to the eye, and hidden themes are quite delightful.”
- “The graphics and artwork are very simple, and the UI/UX can be somewhat daunting and overwhelming to look at.”
- “Graphics are nearly non-existent, but there's a fair bit of depth, and if you know what you're doing, the game progresses at a good pace.”
- “What I mean by that is this program will give you nothing that a game gives: no clutch moments, no narrow escapes, and definitely no pretty graphics.”

The game's story is a surprising highlight for many players, evolving significantly after extensive gameplay and adding depth to the incremental mechanics.

- “Thought this would be the average idle game but this is almost a masterpiece. There was even an unexpected storyline near the end, which was nice.”
- “While it starts out slow, it gets really good and even has story elements towards the end and wraps up everything nicely.”
- “This 'numbers go up' game picks up a story after a few hundred hours.”
- “Incremental idle game with no plot and barebones theme; huge numbers go brrrrt and cause endorphin release.”
- “That said, beyond the unique mechanics and challenges presented throughout the game, it felt very devoid of story/lore/motivation to finish.”

The grinding aspect of the game is a significant focus, with many players noting that it can become excessively tedious, especially during late-game stages.

The monetization model of the game is largely praised for being unobtrusive and optional, with many players noting the absence of aggressive microtransactions or ads.

Overall, the game is considered a genuinely free-to-play experience that prioritizes gameplay over monetization.
- “On top of it all, it's balanced without microtransactions, so if you're looking for an idle game, this one has pretty much everything you could want.”
- “One other great thing about this game is that it is a truly free-to-play game – there's no artificial wall to get you to use the microtransactions, there's no ads, and the shop is completely optional, and you can even hide it in the options menu.”
- “Progression is designed around zero microtransactions.”
- “There are incremental games that are made to follow the formula and pump out an easy cash grab.”
- “Huge numbers when you pay microtransactions to shortcut to 'many layers' and 'secrets'.”

The music aspect of the game receives mixed reviews, with some praising a flawless soundtrack that enhances the experience, while others criticize the absence of music, feeling it detracts from engagement. Some players appreciate the intentional lack of music to evoke a sense of emptiness, while others find the overall audio experience lacking and suggest playing their own music instead. Overall, the game's approach to music seems to polarize opinions, with some finding it impactful and others deeming it insufficient.
- “The credit music adds a nice layer to it as well, both alluding to the possibility that you'll restart the game and also giving a somber send-off to the celestials.”
- “This game also features a flawless soundtrack.”
- “Great soundtrack.”
- “The UI looks boring; there is no music, and the game feels like I'm wasting my time, which a game should never feel like.”
- “There's no music, but there doesn't need to be. Considering the theme of the game, I believe it was intentionally left out to further amplify the 'void' feeling the game emits.”
- “The UI and general style of the game is pretty ugly; the currency and upgrades of the game aren't tangible, and there's no soundtrack or effects.”

Overall, the game offers surprising replayability for an idle title, with a solid score of 6.0 to 9.0 out of 10 from users. While some players feel that familiarity with the game limits its replay value, the introduction of modifications like ng+++ enhances depth and encourages multiple playthroughs, making it a compelling choice for both casual play and speedrunning.
- “Perfect for passing time, deep gameplay, with surprising replayability for an idle game.”
- “Extremely compelling with a great amount of playability and replayability for a free game with basically no microtransactions.”
- “However, the replayability and speedrunning is amazing.”
- “The way that it forces you to become very familiar with every part of the game limits the replay value in my eyes, but the time I got out of just the one playthrough more than justifies that, even taking into account the zero price tag (at time of writing).”
- “Replay value --- 6.0 / 10.0”
- “Notably, aarex tiaokhiao developed a modification known as ng+++, which accelerates early-game progression and introduces additional content, extending the game's depth and replayability.”

- “There’s a distinct absence of environmental storytelling, leaving the world feeling empty and uninspired.”
