The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the excessive and intrusive nature of ads, which often disrupt gameplay and require players to watch multiple ads to gain rewards. Many players feel that the microtransactions are overpriced and that the game is designed to push them towards spending money to progress, leading to a frustrating experience that detracts from the overall enjoyment. While some users are willing to tolerate ads for additional rewards, the forced ads after battles and constant pop-up offers have led many to label the game as a cash grab, ultimately diminishing its potential.
- “Despite having all of the expected in-game purchases available to make money from, they then impose in-game ads, each with a 3-stage skip requirement.”
- “I understand that microtransactions are expected, but it is a massive slog to progress after the initial newbie boost.”
- “A game with no ads is a godsend nowadays, so I wanted to support the devs by buying some gems, but then I realized just how ungodly expensive it is to buy them for how little you get in return!”
- “The game has so much potential but the amount of ads gets in the way of thoroughly enjoying the game.”
- “Forced ads are never great, but to go from none to the majority of your experience is crazy.”
- “The game was fun until they updated and introduced forced ads and ask a ridiculous price in real money to have them removed.”

The gameplay is generally described as enjoyable and fun, featuring decent mechanics and a variety of characters and items. However, many players express frustration with aggressive monetization tactics, including expensive microtransactions, intrusive ads, and paywalls that hinder progression, making the experience feel grindy and unbalanced. While the game has potential and offers a unique gameplay loop, the overwhelming focus on monetization detracts significantly from the overall enjoyment.

- “The gameplay is fun, and good artwork.”
- “I really enjoy the gameplay and the graphics are great.”
- “Overly animated transitions make gameplay and deck management feel sluggish.”
- “The game is decent but, and it's a big but, its gameplay is obviously weighted to making you buy things: you rapidly get to a point where progress is very very slow without special cards, and their summon packs are outrageously expensive.”
- “Gameplay is barebones and boring, and to make matters worse it's an NFT game.”

The game's story aspect is criticized for its lack of depth and engagement, with many players noting that there is little to no narrative in the campaign mode. Users report frequent bugs that prevent quest completion and recognition, leading to frustration and a sense of stagnation in progress.

- “Easy to play and very great storyline.”
- “This is an awesome game; I literally play it every day doing as many quests as I can and leveling up my cards.”
- “You aren't forced into using the NFTs, so it isn't a one-star review, but there's no story, and the cycle of battle, summon, and sort quickly gets old.”
- “Game honestly sucks, it's beyond pay to win with booster packs costing more than an actual AAA game, save your time, money, and phone storage and buy an actual game that doesn't require microtransactions just to progress in the story.”

The reviews consistently highlight that the game is excessively grindy, particularly after the initial chapters, making progression feel tedious and often requiring significant time investment or monetary purchases to advance.

- “The game also walls you pretty hard and becomes quite tedious after a while.”
- “Takes so much grinding to level up and ascend, and after you get so far they make it impossible to get stronger without paying or getting extremely lucky by spamming the same levels over and over to get loot with better stats.”
