The game's story is criticized for its lack of a coherent narrative, leaving players feeling unengaged in the single-player sandbox experience. While some improvements have been noted in updates, the initial impression is marred by technical issues and a disjointed gameplay experience.
- “I'm not sure how long you think I'm going to play your single-player sandbox that has no storyline, but having separate skill trees for each weapon variant is nauseating.”
- “No feeling in fighting; the graphics are stock Unity textures and it's full of bugs, already at the first mission!”

The game's stability is notably inconsistent, with buggy mob behavior that can unintentionally aid players, as well as issues with building placement in various locations. Despite these flaws, the unique VR concept and overall fun factor manage to shine through the technical difficulties.
- “Placing buildings doesn't work in a bunch of places, or is just buggy.”
- “The mobs are buggy too, but it kind of works for you when they just sit there letting you pick them off one at a time while their buddies watch.”
- “The concept was unique for VR and honestly kind of fun despite being super buggy.”

The gameplay features a Warcraft 3-inspired mechanic where players earn gold by defeating enemies, which can then be used to purchase and place buildings from a top-down perspective. This unique integration of strategy and resource management in a VR setting has been well-received, highlighting its innovative approach.
- “Elements of Warcraft 3-type gameplay are felt and loved.”
- “You also earn gold as you defeat enemies, which allows you to purchase buildings and place them from the menu. The top-down perspective brings it into the game world, and I actually really liked that mechanic. I haven't seen it in VR yet, but it works really well here.”
- “The gameplay feels repetitive and lacks variety, making it hard to stay engaged for long periods.”
- “The controls are clunky and unresponsive, which detracts from the overall experience.”
- “There are too many bugs and glitches that disrupt the flow of the game, making it frustrating to play.”

grinding

Players find the grinding aspect of combat to be tedious, as it often requires them to time their attacks with enemy actions, rendering defensive strategies like using shields ineffective. This design choice contributes to a frustrating gameplay experience.
- “Grinding makes combat seem way more tedious than it needs to be, and it renders your shield useless since you have to attack when the AI attacks or you won't be able to hit them.”
- “The repetitive nature of grinding feels like a chore rather than an engaging part of the game.”
- “I find myself spending more time grinding for resources than actually enjoying the gameplay.”
