The monetization aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating the absence of intrusive ads and the option to make in-game purchases to enhance their experience. However, several users have reported issues with ad removal purchases not functioning as intended, leading to frustration over persistent ads despite payment. Overall, while some players find the game fair and enjoyable without heavy monetization pressure, others feel it leans towards being a cash grab with unresolved technical issues related to ads and purchases.
“This game is most likely the most fair idle game I've played in a long time. While the exponential growth becomes more apparent as you play, the in-game purchases that help with leveling up quicker are rather cheap.”
“And the simple concept of not shoving microtransactions in your face is one that I wish more games would do.”
“Started playing this game as a time pass and now I see myself completing my daily tasks every day, playing for at least an hour. It's very engaging, and to progress doesn't really need in-app purchases. Plus, I love the fact that they don't push purchases in your face constantly nor bombard you with ads. It's honestly amazing fun, 10/10 good job devs.”
“This is basically one of those cash grab games. I've played many of those back in the past; this kind of game isn't for me, no need to have a decent strategy at all.”
“I even bought the $7 package to remove ads and was still prompted to watch ads to get necessary items for summons and upgrades.”
“Remove ads purchase doesn't remove ads.”

While some appreciate the aesthetic and find it enjoyable, others note that the graphics can appear dated or lack high-end polish compared to other games.

“Love the graphics with characters kind of diablo-ish look.”
“Incredible graphics, not a scam game, a fun and simple game.”
“Excellent graphics and configuration.”
“Only thing I dislike a bit is the graphics look a bit dated, and the need to be online 24/7 to get better loot from farming.”
“I'm convinced they bought 5-star reviews; the game is an actual honest cash grab with really bad graphics and generic design, very boring gameplay, too much overpriced stuff, and so many bundles that it's overwhelming.”
“Pretty bad, no dedicated graphics that scream a game that was worked hard on... not even worth being called a cookie cutter game.”

The reviews highlight that the game is enjoyable for players who appreciate grinding, with many finding the system rewarding and satisfying despite its tedious nature. Some users note the necessity of being online for optimal farming and express concerns about the game's increasing pay-to-win elements.

“Amazing game! It's a simple yet complicated grinding experience, whether you're playing AFK or actively.”
“Btw farming offline is a major disadvantage, so you have to be online, and it's pretty much an RNG simulator, and a lot of credit cards.”
“Lol wasted three weeks of grinding because the app cannot be opened anymore.”
“Great game, one of the best mobile games for sure, after a while though it gets really pay to win and extremely grindy but not impossible.”

The gameplay is generally described as engaging and fun, featuring a variety of mechanics that encourage strategic play and progression. While many players appreciate the simple yet addictive nature of the game, some express frustration with issues related to patches, grind-heavy elements, and a perceived lack of depth after reaching certain milestones. Overall, the game offers a mix of enjoyable mechanics and community interaction, though opinions vary on its long-term appeal and monetization practices.
“The gameplay is engaging, and I love the variety of items; each one adds depth and keeps things exciting.”
“Amazing gameplay, easy to learn, and all-out fun experiences.”
“With fast-paced gameplay and even faster progression, leading to an extremely rewarding experience for the player.”
“One's expectations should be geared to: simple gameplay, linear progression, and a grind.”
“I'm convinced they bought 5-star reviews; the game is an actual cash grab with really bad graphics and generic design. The gameplay is very boring, with too much overpriced content and overwhelming bundles. If you are a free-to-play player, you will spend months just logging in every day for the AFK stuff, and you might eventually beat a single level and repeat. If you are willing to pay, keep in mind you will spend a lot, potentially thousands. I don't recommend it.”
“The GM of the game, Morse, is corrupt and immature, and the gameplay itself is literally 50% waiting for the game to actually work and 50% doing minimal tasks.”

“The game plays good, the storyline is okay, and it's easy to level up.”
“What about new main quests since it stopped too early? Wish I didn't like it in an indling game.”
“For me, minus 1 star for zero story and the ridiculous numbers in attacks and HP.”
“What about new main quests since it stopped too early? Wish I didn't like it in an indie game.”
“Also, I think this game needs more content for mid-end game, because after unlocking upgrade gear, the game is just doing daily quests and waiting until you have enough resources.”

The stability of the game has been widely criticized, with users reporting frequent freezes, black screens, and issues connecting to servers. Many players have experienced persistent bugs that hinder gameplay, despite attempts to troubleshoot or reinstall the app. Overall, the game's performance is seen as unreliable, detracting from the overall experience.
“Once it gets past the menu with the top players, the loading circle doesn't even go around once. It freezes, then goes to a black screen and sends me back to the home screen. I've deleted apps and cleared space, but that doesn't seem to work.”
“However, the reason I gave 2 stars is that it is very buggy.”
“Can't even load in; it just gets to the same part of the login screen every time, freezes, then kicks me out of the app. I'll redownload it if the problem gets fixed.”
