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, effectively allowing them to generate upgrade points more easily. Overall, it serves as a fun time-waster despite its grindy nature.
“The game is a fun time waster, but it feels overly grindy. There are ways to exploit the power-ups and the store, turning it into a slot machine for more upgrade points.”
