The gameplay is criticized for being slow and boring, lacking a speed-up option commonly found in tower defense games, and is further marred by challenging mechanics, annoying sound effects, and disorienting visuals upon failure. Additionally, it is noted to be resource-intensive, drawing significant CPU load without delivering a modern gaming experience.
“The gameplay is slow and boring, and there is no speed-up button like a lot of tower defense games have.”
“Takes 50% CPU load for gameplay like it's 1990.”
