The story aspect of the game is described as a mix of intriguing elements and underwhelming execution, with players appreciating the atmospheric storytelling and hints of a larger narrative, particularly in the prologue. However, many find the overall plot dull, exacerbated by monotone voice acting and a lackluster final mission that fails to deliver a satisfying conclusion. While the gameplay mechanics are engaging, they often overshadow the narrative, leaving players wanting more depth and excitement in the story.
- “The story got intrigue & I love the color palette.”
- “Idun: prologue feels like the opening chapter of a story you can’t wait to dive deeper into.”
- “If you’re into atmospheric storytelling with a touch of mythology, this one’s worth your time.”
- “Generic tower defense game but with AI 'voice actors' that deliver a very monotone dialogue that makes the already boring story even more dull.”
- “Kinda flaccid, game works fine but overall everything just ends up underwhelming, especially at the end where the final mission is just a normal mission which is extremely anti-climactic.”
- “The story hints at something much larger, but just as you start to feel invested, it’s over.”

The gameplay is a compelling blend of tower defense and real-time strategy elements, featuring active abilities and tactical combat within an extraction-based mission structure. Players appreciate the tight loop of mission engagement and upgrades, alongside randomized maps that add variability to challenges. While the mechanics may not be groundbreaking, they effectively support the game's atmosphere and narrative, making for an enjoyable experience overall.
- “But overall, it doesn't prevent me from enjoying the fantastic gameplay underneath.”
- “While there's a lot more focus on active abilities and moving 'towers' and 'heroes' around, it's a great take on the tower defense gameplay loop with a bit of that RTS-style tactical combat mixed in, governed by an 'extraction' based mission structure.”
- “There's a cool mix of standard tower defense and action gameplay here.”
- “Actually, the maps are random. If you fail on a certain map and restart it, it will randomize the layout, which can lead to easier or harder gameplay. You could technically fish for a good map if necessary, but the game was not that hard.”
- “While the mechanics aren’t groundbreaking, they serve their purpose well, letting you focus on the atmosphere and story.”
- “But later in the game, when I know the main gameplay, progress could absolutely be possible only after a win.”
