The game lacks a coherent story, with only minimal information provided on the store page. Players find that essential gameplay elements and controls are not explained within the game, leading to confusion about its features. Overall, the absence of a narrative detracts from the gaming experience.
“There is no story other than what is mentioned in the store page; the importance of RPG elements or how they work will never get explained. There's no mention of controls (you need to have read the manual beforehand), and you will have no idea about how the game's features work.”
“There's also no story either, at least in the game itself.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious and repetitive, particularly when having to repeatedly fight to regain higher boards. This repetitive nature detracts from the overall enjoyment of the gameplay experience.
“Having to fight back up to higher boards is tedious and gets repetitive quickly.”
