The game effectively captures the experience of being a healer in an MMO, providing a fun and engaging gameplay loop with a variety of healing spells and character classes.
Each run offers a unique experience due to the roguelike elements, allowing players to experiment with different party compositions and spell combinations.
The game is challenging and requires strategic thinking, making it rewarding for players who enjoy managing their party and navigating complex boss mechanics.

The AI companions are poorly designed, often failing to avoid dangerous areas, which forces players to micromanage their movements and detracts from the healing experience.
The game suffers from a lack of polish, with issues such as clunky controls, frustrating targeting mechanics, and a UI that could use significant improvements.
Some players find the gameplay repetitive and feel that the game lacks depth in terms of meaningful choices and character progression.

The gameplay is generally praised for its engaging and rewarding mechanics, with a solid loop that allows for deep strategic play and varied class builds. However, many players express frustration with the AI of party members, which often requires manual control to avoid hazards, detracting from the overall experience. While the game offers interesting boss mechanics and a satisfying challenge, some feel that the gameplay lacks depth in the long term and could benefit from improvements in AI behavior and user interface.
- “Way more addicting than you'd think, the gameplay is surprisingly deep with a lot of variation between runs. I also love that it's relatively short per run.”
- “The gameplay is the real deal; I had a great time creating my ideal healer build in each of the different dungeons with the different class starts, and the enemy abilities are interesting and novel.”
- “The gameplay loop is perfect, engaging, rewarding, and challenging.”
- “I thought the gameplay loop was pretty boring.”
- “The gameplay concept is there, but the NPCs following your lead too closely, slow walking, bleak environments, and generic graphics leave much to be desired.”
- “Your NPC party members won't react to mechanics automatically, so your job includes moving them out of various effects that will otherwise get them killed.”

The graphics of the game have received mixed reviews, with many players noting issues such as graphical flickering and bland visuals that evoke older MMORPGs. While some appreciate the nostalgic charm of the art style, others criticize it as generic and in need of significant upgrades. Overall, the visuals are seen as a drawback, but they do not overshadow the enjoyable gameplay experience.
- “Yes, the graphics have that クソゲー (kusogē) feel to them, but there is a certain charm to them.”
- “Honestly, the UI and graphics you see from the screenshots may seem a bit weak, but the gameplay is quite nice.”
- “Love healing 5-man dungeons in WoW vanilla, love roguelikes, love cozy dungeons, love graphics like this.”
- “Was a great game, I would've bought every single expansion to keep playing, but since recently there has been a graphical flickering issue, which makes it unplayable.”
- “The gameplay concept is there, but the NPCs following your axis to a T, slow walking, bleak environments, and generic graphics leave much to be desired.”
- “Graphics are trash and need to be upgraded.”
grinding

Players appreciate that the game offers a similar experience to World of Warcraft's healing without the burdensome gear grinding, enhancing enjoyment. However, some criticize the mechanics that encourage farming specific levels for loot, arguing that it can lead to weaker characters and diminished rewards despite the presence of a bonus system.
- “This can be turned off; however, it seems to be a silly mechanic to begin with. You get more progression and get stronger by farming a level for all loot. Forcing you to run through only makes you weaker and provides less of a reward, even with the 'bonus' that does not change regardless of the size of the map or the difficulty of the enemies.”
- “Fun: hell yeah - scratches that WoW healer itch without the grinding.”
- “This game plays a lot like World of Warcraft healing but without having to deal with grinding for gear or human inefficiencies.”
