The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating its intuitive controls and strategic depth, likening it to chess-like mechanics.

While the graphics and overall design are praised, issues such as bugs, slow pacing, and a lack of diversity in gameplay mechanics have been highlighted as significant drawbacks.

The game's monetization is generally well-received, with players appreciating the absence of interrupting ads and the minimal pay-to-win elements. While there are optional in-app purchases, they are not necessary for progression, allowing players to enjoy the game without feeling pressured to spend money. Overall, the monetization model is considered fair and enhances the gaming experience.
- “Really good game... I'm glued... the unlimited PvP gives you something to do if you use up all your energy and 3 daily tasks that cycle 15 minutes after one is completed. It's worth a try if you're into medieval turn-based lane games with plenty of unit styles and hands full of equipment for each nation... just give it a chance, it's free with no ads.”
- “Fair monetization, pretty graphics, and solid gameplay make this a nice change of pace!”
- “Finally, a game with a decent monetization system.”
- “Obviously there's some cash grabbery in the form of in-app purchases, but considering how amazing the game is, the animation (must have been tons of work to get this hand-drawn vibe), and that it's free, I don't mind too much.”
- “Another cash grab.”
- “There are (so far) no interrupting ads, and though there are pay items in the market, it is not necessary to spend money for game progression.”
