The gameplay of Godrop has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it engaging and fast-paced, particularly appreciating its unique mechanics and references to the "Three Body Problem" lore. However, others criticize the controls and overall execution, describing it as mediocre compared to other titles in the genre. Despite these criticisms, many players enjoy the combination of action and strategy, along with the game's graphics and immersive soundtrack.

“The gameplay is very fast and the fans of action games will definitely like it.”
“Godrop is a very mediocre 2D top-down bullet hell with a bit of a 'ramming' focus... really mediocre graphics, even worse gameplay; it makes Asteroids look like, well, a masterpiece of design in comparison.”
“You fly through space in a top-down bullet hell, but the gameplay doesn’t deliver.”
“Godrop: prologue seamlessly combines the thrill of a relentless barrage with strategic gameplay.”

The monetization aspect of the game is heavily criticized for being misleading, as it primarily serves as an advertisement for a product rather than a full game. Users express frustration over the practice of publishing demos and ads as standalone titles, which detracts from genuine game developers and misleads consumers into spending money on what is essentially promotional content. Overall, the monetization strategy is viewed as exploitative and detrimental to the gaming community.
“The purpose of this advertisement is to get you to shell out an eye-watering $9 USD to buy the full game... I don't recommend that you do.”
“While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful.”
“It's impossible for me to recommend this incorrectly published advertising spam to gamers; you deserve better than adverts.”
