“So far, for me the game is great, nice storyline and great music and sound effects.”

I recommend you all should play this game about the slaying demon and the priest who protects his village from demons; that is cool.”

The gameplay is generally praised for its smoothness, engaging mechanics, and high-quality graphics, often compared to console-level experiences. However, players have noted issues such as lag, glitches, and the absence of certain mechanics like a parry system, which could enhance the overall experience. Despite these drawbacks, many users find the gameplay enjoyable and recommend it to others.
“Awesome gameplay, design, mechanics, and just overall gameplay (console grade). This game series has so much potential to spread across platforms and receive funding by doing so.”
“This game has console quality gameplay and is absolutely engaging. 12/10 would recommend.”
“The game is fun, gameplay is smooth and pretty easy to learn.”
“The gameplay is very stupid and the graphics suck.”
“I can't hear sound in the game. I don't know if it is a bug or actual gameplay. I am still at the beginning of the game, so I don't know if it comes later, but it would feel better with sound.”
“Now if we can just parry some enemy attacks, it would've been a perfect game for me. Still good though; hope you guys can add some parry mechanics.”

The monetization aspect of the game has received significant criticism due to the overwhelming number of ads, particularly after deaths and during gameplay, which disrupts the experience and can lead to frustration. While some players appreciate the creative integration of ads for rewards, the consensus is that the frequency and timing of ads detract from the overall enjoyment, with many calling for a reduction or better management of ad placements.
“The issue is ads every death; it is a waste of time, especially on hard difficulties. You will need to wait 30 seconds just to respawn and then die again to wait another 30 seconds.”
“Great game, but I hate how they put a lot of ads. I understand it's necessary because the game is free, but at least give us some buffs in the game so we don't die all the time in the later game modes, which makes the game even harder.”
“Game was good, but too many ads in this game... that's why I deleted it.”
