The game suffers from significant stability issues, including frequent freezing when fast-forwarding beyond 1.0x speed and various visual glitches such as character models clipping and corpses stretching unnaturally. Users report that gameplay is more stable at lower speeds, but overall, the lack of custom scenarios and persistent audio resets further detract from the experience.
- “Sometimes, when you increase the speed of the fight to anything over 1.0x, the game doesn't like it and freezes up quite a bit. I find staying at either 0.5x or 1.0x is best.”
- “When you have a large army, during the large group fights, when someone dies, sometimes their corpse stretches horribly and glitches out around the map.”
- “There are lots of visual glitches.”

The gameplay features solid troop mechanics regarding health, speed, and damage; however, it largely revolves around spamming a limited number of units, leading to easy battles and a short experience with only 30 levels.
- “The mechanics of the troops is quite good (health/speed/damage etc).”
- “The gameplay, if you even want to call it that, is just spamming a random number of the 3 units you have at your command. The battles are really easy, and there are only 30 levels.”

story

The story is engaging in the initial missions, but it becomes frustrating as the gameplay mechanics lead to a lack of strategic control, with characters often disregarding formations to rush towards the largest enemy group. This undermines the potential for tactical encirclement and diminishes the overall narrative experience.
