The gameplay is characterized by city-building mechanics that some users feel detract from the experience, as the introduction of power-ups seems to complicate rather than enhance the core mechanics. Overall, it resembles a solitaire-style approach to resource management and city development, reminiscent of the cradle games.
“This brings us to the city-building mechanics.”
“I feel like they tried to add to the gameplay with the power-ups and took away from it.”
“Much of the gameplay appears to me to be a solitaire version of the cradle games, where you play levels to acquire resources and the like to build or rebuild a city or castle.”

The game's story introduces an unexpected background mission focused on building a village and collecting magic powers, which adds an enjoyable layer of depth and excitement to the typical solitaire gameplay.
“I had no idea that the game comes with a sort of background mission of building up your village and collecting new magic powers along the way, but it was all a pleasant surprise that adds a bit of fun to the usual monotony of a solitaire game.”
