Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be a double-edged sword; while it can be enjoyable and rewarding, many express frustration over the repetitive nature and slow progression tied to farming for power and coins.

There are no other game modes, no boosts... there's no way to loot fast in this game. I wanted to delete it, but at the same time, I kinda want to keep it because I've been playing for a while now. Sorry for the low rating, just keep in mind that I really love this game. I really do, I'm really sorry for the low rating.”
