The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with many users criticizing it for being simplistic, repetitive, and lacking depth, particularly in terms of modes and progression. While some appreciate the fast-paced action and humor, others feel that the core mechanics are uninspired and that the game could benefit from more quests and rewards to enhance replayability. Overall, while there are moments of fun, the gameplay is seen as needing significant improvement to maintain long-term engagement.
- “Excellent gameplay and humor.”
- “Fast and dynamic action, traps, weapons, dark humor, simple and fun gameplay, local co-op.”
- “The graphics and style are cute, the gameplay is simple but challenging, the items are balanced.”
- “Gameplay is terrible and unimaginative.”
- “There's no other modes (Poland is just a reskin), no incentive to move forward (unlocks don't seem to impact gameplay as the most important items are either further in the game or are unlocked at the start) and the game isn't exactly hard to play once you get an idea of how to keep your distance from baddies.”
- “Even if that issue was fixed, the core gameplay was insultingly simple; animations were just the rotation of the controller stick with all other sprites gliding around on a low-quality 2D tileset.”

The music in the game is a mixed bag; while some players appreciate the effective yet generic background music that complements the gameplay without distraction, others find it dull and lacking in creativity.

- “The background music was pretty good.”
- “Intensive and beautiful battle music.”

- “Having generic music actually worked in the game's favor by not distracting me.”
