The gameplay of the game is generally well-received, featuring solid mechanics, strategic turn-based combat, and a variety of tactical options that enhance player control. However, many users report issues such as bugs, slow progression, and repetitive elements that detract from the overall experience. While the graphics and character designs are praised, some players find the gameplay can become tedious, especially with grinding and time-locked progression.
- “Combat mechanics are one of the best I've seen, with lots of tactical options. You have full control over the units and a full autoplay option. It's also very free-to-play friendly, as you receive many free items at the start of the game, from units to game cash.”
- “Very fun to play and has a ton of things to do. It lets you auto-farm when you want but also has a very deep strategic play for manual turn-based gameplay.”
- “Great gameplay, a lot of PvE content, and I hope more events will come in the future.”
- “It has great graphics and all but the gameplay ruins it.”
- “Can't believe I paid $50 for this game that has redundant, repetitive gameplay that gets you nowhere with little achievement.”
