The game currently lacks replayability due to its single map, absence of challenges, and static enemy waves and bosses, resulting in a repetitive experience.
- “There isn't a lot of replayability currently; just one map, no challenges or anything. You dig your own tunnels, and waves, bosses, and new entrances are static.”
