The gameplay is characterized by a blend of turn-based dice-rolling mechanics and roguelike elements, offering a variety of characters, weapons, and status effects that create interesting interactions. However, many players find the gameplay simplistic and repetitive, with a lack of depth in strategic decision-making and overall progression, leading to mixed feelings about its replay value.

- “The gameplay is pretty fun as well and has a number of viable builds.”
- “A charming, adorable roguelike that makes the most of its simple turn-based dice-rolling mechanics.”
- “If you like other games that have roguelike elements and enjoy dice roll mechanics, I'd strongly recommend the game.”
- “The criticism I have is that the actual gameplay is extremely simplistic, and the replay value is also in turn almost zero, aside from just trying out each character once.”
- “I want to recommend the game, as it's an interesting concept with cute characters, but the actual game—mechanically—just isn't there.”
- “The game tries to make some replay value with the achievements, like using the mutators/handicaps/aka 'special missions', but I just don't feel compelled to, because the gameplay is so barebones.”

The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating its catchy and endearing qualities, particularly during boss fights, while others criticize its repetitiveness and limited variety, noting that it draws from the same library as another game, Supraland.

- “Not much in terms of music and it can feel overused.”
- “I get it, not everyone can afford to get custom made music, and Supraland apparently couldn't afford it either... but it made the already mediocre experience even worse.”

The story in the game revolves around completing missions with various characters, starting with Finn, in a procedurally generated environment. While the main narrative is brief and lacks depth, the game attempts to enhance replayability through achievements and special missions; however, many players find the gameplay too simplistic and unengaging. The absence of rewards for failed missions further diminishes the incentive to explore the story further.
- “There are three different maps, but since they are procedurally generated, the fields will differ each time you start a mission.”
- “It's easy to get into, even though you'll wish for a few more details during your first mission.”
- “The game tries to make some replay value with the achievements, like using the mutators/handicaps, aka 'special missions', but I just don't feel compelled to, because the gameplay is so barebones.”
- “While the main mission is short, it is all randomized boards and it allows you to play through all the available characters.”
- “If you lose a mission, you get nothing.”
