The game's story begins with an engaging and humorous cutscene that sets up an epic narrative, but players feel that the gameplay mechanics and mission requirements undermine this potential. Many find the mission objectives frustratingly difficult and the overall experience lacking in fun, despite acknowledging the game's potential for improvement. Overall, while the story has a promising foundation, the execution in gameplay detracts from its impact.
- “The intro cutscene hilariously builds up this grand epic story, only for the game to feel like it's being held together by duct tape.”
- “While this demo has only 3 missions (the last one I have not even seen yet), that is plenty enough to show that this game shows real potential to become something great.”
- “The plot and game controls take a few minutes to figure out, though it is good for a quick playthrough of the short game.”
- “This game has potential, but we should be able to keep our dragons' level. With the timer, there isn't time to destroy villages to level up a little before you do the quest, and a map marker/arrow to where we are supposed to go would be helpful.”
- “Game is not fun at all; things pop into view at almost point-blank range, and it's a burn. This set is for this mission type only, not a free roam, and burn if you want. There is no system in place of any kind that is fun.”

While some appreciate the modern-day graphics and smooth performance, others feel that the visuals are outdated and in need of significant improvement.

- “The graphics I saw on my screen were on par with 'Populous: The Beginning'.”
- “Shallow 3D graphics and clunky controls; you mostly have to elevate from the terrain.”
- “Very poor controls, one ability, and so visually plain it doesn't even suggest an art style coming down the road.”
