The gameplay is described as simple and initially enjoyable, but it quickly loses its appeal, with many players feeling it lacks depth and longevity. While there are hopes for future content to enhance the experience, current gameplay is limited, offering only about half an hour of engagement unless players pursue additional achievements.
- “I hope this game doesn't die like Incredicer and actually gets more content that gives this game lots of hours of gameplay; probably the best way for this would be realms/prestige because of those two upgrades.”
- “Initial gameplay loop was kind of fun, but the feeling falls flat pretty quickly.”
- “The gameplay doesn't really feel incredible at all; it just looks like it.”
- “Realistically, this game has about half an hour of gameplay if you aren't focused on getting platinum.”
