The gameplay is described as simple yet solid, with a mix of enjoyable mechanics and a variety of items and enemies that create an engaging experience. However, some players feel it lacks depth in its tower defense elements and "game juice," as the audio effects do not match the visual impact of attacks. Overall, while the gameplay is fun and addictive, there are areas that could benefit from improvement, particularly in sound design.
- “It has really good art and the gameplay is incredible.”
- “All the mechanics are awesome, so many items, so many enemies!”
- “The art and music are so beautiful, gameplay well made and you kinda just lose the sense of time by how addicting the game is.”
- “The gameplay lacks 'game juice'; attacking enemies doesn't have the punch it probably should. The particle effects give the impression of a crunchy strong sound, but the sound itself doesn't back it up. The magic wands are a prime example of this, though I haven't gotten far enough to see the late game stuff, so it may be different later on.”
- “Looked kind of cool but is poorly described, since it has no tower defense mechanics whatsoever.”
- “For the casual reader, I do recommend this game. The gameplay itself isn't too complex; I wouldn't quite call it tower defense, though it does fit the description. My views on the genre are just underdeveloped.”
