Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be somewhat tedious, often exacerbated by the unpredictable range attack patterns of certain enemies, which can lead to frustrating challenges.

The music in the game has been described as somewhat dull, though it shares a similar vibe and soundtrack to Diablo, which may appeal to fans of that franchise. Overall, while the soundtrack complements the gameplay, it lacks distinctiveness.
“For anyone that loves Diablo, this has the same vibe, a similar soundtrack, and you get to kill non-stop, which I like.”
