grinding
3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious and overwhelming, particularly due to the reliance on advertisements for rewards and progress. The need to level up managers for automation adds to the grind, making it feel less enjoyable and more like an ad-farming experience. Overall, the game is criticized for its excessive grind and reliance on RNG.
- “The game is cool and still easy, but it gets super tedious. There are advertisement opportunities everywhere to be able to get rewards, to the point where it's a little overwhelming. I made it to level 3, which is arguably where they stopped babysitting you, and have found that you can't actually idle the game anymore because you need level two on your managers to enable automation, which requires relying on RNG to hope that you pull the first manager slot.”
- “Just everything kawaii except: it's grindy unless you watch ads to progress faster.”
- “Ads farming game, don't waste your time playing this garbage.”
