The reviews highlight that the game features excessive grinding, often leading to a tedious experience with bland combat and minimal story development. While some players find enjoyment in mindless farming, many criticize the lack of engaging gameplay mechanics and character options, making the grinding feel pointless and frustrating. Overall, the game is described as heavily reliant on grinding, which may appeal to a niche audience but leaves others feeling dissatisfied.
- “Lots of grinding, bland combat, and with NPCs trying to be meta, all combining into a nice game where you spend hours doing nothing productive for boring boss fights.”
- “The gameplay is only grinding then fight the stronger enemies.”
- “Having characters basically say, 'haha, grinding, am I right?' isn't a substitute for actually trying to make grinding interesting, and constantly lampshading like, 'no, this is a dull, generic RPG Maker game on purpose, see?' doesn't make it less dull to play, only irritatingly self-conscious about it.”
