The game has a promising template for an ARPG, reminiscent of classics like Titan Quest and Diablo, with refreshing class depth and interesting loot and crafting systems.
Despite being in early access, the game offers enjoyable gameplay with a relaxed feel, and the developer is responsive to feedback and actively working on improvements.
The graphics and aesthetic are appealing, and there is potential for a fun hack and slash experience with various loot drops and crafting mechanics.

The game is currently very unfinished, with many bugs and issues such as clunky controls, unresponsive spells, and problems with inventory management that detract from the experience.
Players have reported that the game feels like an early alpha release, lacking substantial content and polish, making it not worth the investment at this stage.
Movement mechanics are problematic, with issues like point-and-click overriding WASD controls, leading to frustrating gameplay experiences.

The graphics are generally considered good, with a pleasing aesthetic that complements the game's potential. However, players express a desire for improved character models and more variety in weapon visuals to enhance the overall experience.
- “I love the aesthetic.”
- “The graphics are quite good, and there is background music.”
- “Interesting loot and crafting; the graphics are acceptable considering how much potential this game has.”
- “One thing I would really like to see is your character model getting updated with better gear visuals and perhaps more variety in terms of weapons characters can use rather than being locked to specific weapon types.”

The gameplay features floaty movement that contributes to a smooth experience, though it may not appeal to everyone. While the game shows promise and attention to detail, it is still in alpha and lacks extensive content, making it more suitable for players interested in supporting its development rather than those seeking a fully polished experience.
- “The movement is floaty, but it kind of adds to the smoothness of the gameplay.”
- “If you want to support the development of a promising game, then I highly recommend you buy this game; however, if you're looking for a game that's nearly finished with dozens of hours of gameplay, then I suggest you try back in 2021.”
- “Most of the alphas I've played have had placeholder assets until most of the game mechanics were done, but some attention to detail here is quite noticeable and welcome.”
