Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be somewhat tedious, but it can be mitigated by exploiting power-ups and the store mechanics, allowing for a more enjoyable experience akin to a slot machine for acquiring upgrade points.
“A fun time waster, a bit grindy, but there are ways to abuse the power-ups and the store so that you can basically turn the store into a slot machine for more upgrade points.”
