- “The game only loads sometimes, the language settings are all different amounts of Korean mixed with a smattering of Japanese and English, the sound crackles and pops, and the visuals keep bugging out to a point where it is unplayable. It's all the more sad because when the game lets you play it, it's actually quite fun. If the problems were fixed, it could actually be worthy of at least 4 stars, but I don't see that happening anytime soon as the company in charge doesn't seem to care.”
- “This doesn't function properly on Moto G5 Plus, with a lot of Korean text and buggy graphics, like a sloppy port.”
- “Error graphics on my device, Moto G5S Plus. Graphics cannot render correctly and sometimes didn't load in certain dungeons, and the language cannot change from Korean to English... always Korean language. Please fix it.”

- “I've been playing this game for more than a year now, and I can clearly say that the performance of the dev team has gotten really worse. The person speaking on behalf of them on their Facebook page stated that everything is well planned (come on, we're not that stupid) and yet you keep adding new content while leaving the old ones unfinished. It seems like you just add whatever comes to mind each month, with no good planning.”

- “The second season is sure a huge improvement with a futuristic UI and a new simple yet challenging dungeon, but it needs optimization. The loading times are longer compared to the previous one, and the gameplay becomes unstable after 1 or 2 hours of login. Sometimes it ends up freezing.”
