The monetization strategy of the game has been criticized for being heavily reliant on intrusive microtransactions, which detracts from the overall experience. Players feel misled by the advertising of features like 4vs4 gameplay, and many view the in-game currency and loot boxes as a blatant cash grab.
- “On pricing and value for gamers, this isn't really free as the game is infested with mobile app store-like microtransactions.”
- “Microtransactions are always in your face.”
- “Blatant cash grab by selling in-game currency for loot boxes as usual.”

Gameplay reviews highlight a need for improvement, particularly in addressing bugs and enhancing content to attract returning players. While the game features deep mechanics and a variety of abilities, the poorly designed card mechanics and a lengthy, forced tutorial detract from the overall experience.
- “With a variety of abilities, this game has deep mechanics to achieve victory.”
- “Devs need to work more on it to really bring ROM and KAL players back to it... many bugs (visual and gameplay) and new content regularly needed to start.”
- “Including the 15-minute forced gameplay tutorial of chapter 1.”
- “The card design and mechanics are poorly made.”

Many players express frustration over the lack of developer responsiveness to these problems, leading to a perception that the game is poorly maintained.
- “I really want to like this game because it reminds me of Rise of Mythos (RIP), but the game is extremely buggy and the devs don't seem to care about fixing anything.”
- “It is a buggy mess and very few things work as intended.”
- “I can't get past the tutorial; the game freezes up during the tutorial. Why are these games even available if they have not been screened?”

- “The graphics are stunning, with beautiful art that feels mature and immersive, making the game visually appealing.”
- “The game features lag-free performance and impressive graphics for its time, enhancing the overall experience.”

The story mode map is largely static, which may limit player engagement, and the reliance on Steam-only servers restricts multiplayer options, making it difficult to complete cooperative missions or participate in PvP battles due to a lack of available players.
- “The story mode map mostly remains the same.”
- “The reliance on Steam-only servers means there are often no players available for cooperative missions or PvP battles, as only Steam players can connect.”
replayability

Players note that the game's replayability is limited, primarily revolving around a few activities such as quests, blacksmithing, and alchemy, which may not provide enough variety to encourage multiple playthroughs.
- “The few things that are playable are the quests, using the blacksmith, and using the alchemy lab.”
- “Once you've completed the main storyline, there's little incentive to replay the game.”
- “The lack of diverse gameplay options makes it hard to find reasons to come back after finishing.”
humor
1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

The humor in the game is derived from its whimsical character transformations, such as Pegasus riders becoming horned eagle riders and lizards being reimagined as comically slow orcs. Players find amusement in the absurdity of these changes, particularly the contrast between the orcs' limited movement and their attack capabilities.
- “Pegasus riders are now horned eagle riders, tengus are gargoyles, and lizards are orcs. It's hilarious to see an orc move only 1 space, but they still have the default 2-square attack range.”
- “The game's humor shines through in its quirky character transformations and unexpected gameplay mechanics.”
- “I love how the game uses absurdity to create funny moments, like when a seemingly powerful creature has such limited movement.”
grinding
1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
300%
Players note a lack of faction experience in the game, which diminishes the incentive to grind for faction-related benefits like critical hits or blocking improvements. This absence may lead to a less engaging grinding experience overall.
- “There is no faction experience (or at least, I am not aware of any), so grinding up a faction to improve its critical hits or block effectiveness feels pointless.”
- “The grinding in this game is tedious and lacks meaningful rewards, making it feel like a chore rather than an engaging experience.”
- “I find the grinding mechanics to be overly repetitive, with little variation to keep it interesting over time.”
optimization

The game's optimization is criticized for its limited arena options, featuring only two modes: a ranked "encounter" system that replaces fortress attacks and a standard 1v1 or 2v2 arena. Players gain or lose points based on their performance, but the overall variety and depth of gameplay appear lacking.
- “The arena is limited to only two modes: 'Encounter', which seems to replace fortress attacks, and a standard 1v1 or 2v2 arena. In 'Encounter', there's a ladder system where if you beat the ranked 5 player, you become the rank 5 player. In the normal arena, you gain or lose points based on your performance.”
- “The arena is limited with only two modes: 'Encounter', which I guess replaces fortress attacks but not really, and a normal 1v1 or 2v2 arena where you gain or lose points based on performance.”
- “The optimization of the game feels lacking, as the limited modes do not provide enough variety or depth for players.”
- “Overall, the game's optimization leaves much to be desired, especially with the repetitive nature of the arena modes.”
