Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and frustrating, particularly due to the slow progression in unlocking characters, skills, and items. The need for excessive clicking to open chests and the overall grind to gather resources for upgrades detracts from the enjoyment of the game. While some users acknowledge that the rest of the game is decent, the grinding experience is a significant drawback.
“At that point, it is just a matter of grinding until your stuff is better than their stuff.”
“Chests really need to be clicked 1 time to open, but the update requires 8 or 10 clicks, which is super annoying. The rest of the game seems okay so far, but it feels a bit grindy to get gems to upgrade things.”
“Unlike every other auto-battler out there, you have to unlock all the characters, skills, and items slowly by grinding, which is not very fun.”

The gameplay is interactive, typical of clicker and idle games, but requires active engagement rather than allowing players to run it passively in the background. Overall, it received a score of 7/10.

“The gameplay feels repetitive and lacks depth, making it hard to stay engaged for long periods.”
“There are too many bugs and glitches that disrupt the flow of the game, making it frustrating to play.”
