The gameplay is a mixed bag, with some players enjoying its engaging mechanics and grind reminiscent of titles like "Vampire Survivors" and "Slay the Spire," while others criticize it for being slow-paced, lacking depth, and feeling clunky. Despite its solid core and potential for unique builds, many feel the gameplay can become repetitive and uninspired, with issues in translation and UI design detracting from the overall experience. Overall, while the gameplay has its addictive moments and visual appeal, it may not satisfy those seeking a more challenging or varied experience.
- “Maybe it's the simple and engaging gameplay.”
- “Gameplay loop is engaging and there's a lot of meta progression.”
- “The gameplay is fun, the builds and synergy make each playthrough unique based on what you want to run and what you get.”
- “The game starts out very slow and even in the late game I do not feel like there is a lot to do, other than moving around, activating your ability from time to time and pressing dash. Sometimes the gameplay interaction is basically non-existent; once you have your artifacts and skills/upgrades, you are set.”
- “It's kinda uninspired, very poorly translated, I wouldn't say it's very challenging or thought-provoking, and the gameplay is kinda one-note.”
- “The gameplay also feels clunky.”
