Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be a mixed experience; while it can be tedious and repetitive, especially with high costs for upgrades and chests, many still enjoy the gameplay enough to continue despite the grind. The need to gather a unique currency, "cabbages," adds to the challenge, but some players appreciate the opportunity to enhance their equipment and progress through the game.
- “Can get a bit boring after some time since it is very grindy if you want to get everything maxed out.”
- “I felt difficulty but nevertheless it didn't stop me from keeping playing, so I had to do a bit of grinding to upgrade equipment and buy chests. However, the pricing for those chests is mind-blowing. The first chest that contains small potions (6 of them, I think) is priced at 250 cabbages - yes, that is the currency in this game, not gold, but vegetables. The next tier chest that contains 8 potions costs 1,000 cabbages. Are you for real?”
- “A nice tower-defense-brawler; it's a little grindy and repetitive, but the gameplay is enjoyable enough for when you want to play a short session.”
