Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious, particularly due to the lack of an auto-buy function, which makes leveling up helpers cumbersome with repetitive clicking. Additionally, the last two achievements are considered excessively grindy, detracting from the overall experience.
“The last two achievements are too grindy for this game.”

“There is no auto-buy function, which would be helpful, especially with the 'helpers'. It's tedious to click 150 times each to level them; a buy 10/100 option would be nice.”

Players express frustration with the gameplay loop, particularly regarding the prestige system, which resets unlocked content, detracting from the overall experience.
“The biggest issue I have with the gameplay loop and prestige is the fact that when you prestige, it just resets your unlocked items.”
