The gameplay features a randomized dungeon experience with a solid loop, reminiscent of a larger-scale version of Lethal Company, though it suffers from shallow mechanics and bugs, such as invisible walls and a poorly received fear mechanic. While some players appreciate the unique style and interesting mechanics, many express frustration with the need for significant fixes before they would consider returning to the game. Overall, the gameplay shows potential but currently lacks polish and depth.
