The game features a charming art style and great music, reminiscent of classic NES titles, providing a nostalgic experience.
Combat is satisfying and requires strategic planning, with power-ups that enhance gameplay and add depth to boss fights.
The level design presents unique challenges in each room, making for an engaging and rewarding experience for players who enjoy a tough but fair challenge.

The difficulty spikes significantly in later levels, often relying on frustrating platforming sections and cheap deaths rather than challenging enemies.
The camera can be awkward during platforming, and the hitbox mechanics can lead to frustrating moments where players are knocked off platforms unexpectedly.
The game lacks adjustable difficulty settings, which could help accommodate players who find the challenge excessively punishing.
