The game's story is generally considered engaging, albeit simple, with players expressing a desire to learn more about the lore and narrative elements. While the story is not overly complex, it complements the enjoyable gameplay and diverse enemy types, leading to a satisfying experience overall. Many hope for a sequel that could enhance the storytelling by creating a more interconnected world.
“Something about a good hack n slash game with new moves, abilities, powers all while telling an engaging enough story.”
“From in-game voices, to story, side story, and cinematics.”
“The story is simple, but you want to find out more.”
“The game does a lot pretty well in terms of enemy types, bosses, but the story is just okay, and some of the lore is lacking.”
“I kinda hope the devs make a sequel that goes for more of an interconnected world and drops the mission structure since this was originally a mobile game, but the core gameplay is fun!”

The graphics are described as lightweight and somewhat dated, with a retro aesthetic that may not appeal to everyone. While the game runs smoothly at 60 fps and offers higher resolutions, it lacks extensive graphical settings for customization. Despite these limitations, the artwork is praised, and fans of the genre may still find enjoyment in the overall experience.
“Great artwork, good hack and slash combat.”
“For people like myself that enjoy these types of games and still can enjoy them with less than current gen graphics, I think you'll really enjoy this game.”
“Graphics look dated; the main character has a fleshed-out skill tree while Esther doesn't, so why bother playing her?”
“Unfortunately, the graphics are a bit retro, and I hope they will be touched up a bit.”
“Don't go in looking for a bunch of graphical settings you can turn up, but they do have higher resolutions.”

The gameplay is generally enjoyable, featuring a simple yet engaging loop that keeps players invested with ongoing unlocks and new elements. While some find the combat combos lackluster compared to other titles like Nioh, the overall experience is enhanced by creative art direction and a desire for further development in potential sequels. Players appreciate the fun core mechanics, despite some criticism of the mission structure stemming from its mobile origins.
“The gameplay loop is simple, but engaging.”
“Everything works this way and I'm over 3 hours into this game and it is still adding gameplay elements, unlocking characters, giving me new trees to strengthen my character, unlocking new appearances, and sending me to new areas.”
“The base you have here is so well done, and in a year with so many great games that stand out like Elden Ring, Spider-Man PC, V Rising, and Vampire Survivors, this game is still something that begs me to play it more due to its good gameplay and great gameplay loop with excellent creative art direction.”
“Gameplay is alright, combos are lackluster; then again, nothing will ever feel as good as Nioh's combos/combat.”
“They are part of the gameplay loop, and some might consider this tedious.”
“I'm over 3 hours into this game, and it is still adding gameplay elements, unlocking characters, giving me new trees to strengthen my character, unlocking new appearances, and sending me to new areas.”
