The gameplay has been criticized for lacking depth and variety, with players noting that upgrades feel insignificant and do not enhance the overall experience. Many express a desire for more engaging quests, skill interactions, and items in future updates, as the current mechanics do not fully capture the essence of a "survivor" game. Overall, the gameplay loop is seen as repetitive and in need of improvement.
- “With it being part of the Chronicon name/universe, I expected cool skill interactions and fun gameplay.”
- “The basic mechanics of a 'survivor' game are there, but this game doesn't get it right at all.”
- “Maybe you'll reach 10% or 15% more of everything on the whole tree, but the gameplay remains the same regardless since those are insignificant upgrades.”
- “Hope we can have other gameplay, quests, and items in future updates.”

The graphics in the game have received criticism for lacking resolution and customization options, leading to a perception of weak and unappealing abilities compared to the original Chronicon. Additionally, oversized hitboxes detract from the overall visual experience, making it feel less polished and immersive.
- “No resolution or other graphics options, abilities feel and look weak (which is so strange - the abilities in the original Chronicon feel meaty and look great), hitboxes are way too big... I could go on.”
