The gameplay is described as enjoyable but heavily reliant on grinding, especially as players progress to tougher areas with increased enemy difficulty. While the mechanics remain consistent throughout, the need for significant power-ups to keep pace with the challenges can make the experience feel repetitive.
“The game is very fun so far, but it's definitely going to be a grind. I thought I was really making progress when I got through the first area, but as soon as I entered the next multiverse, everything became immensely more tanky and damaging. The same mechanics apply, so you don't have to reinvent the wheel for the next area, but the time requirement forces you to grind, as you won't be able to kill things fast enough without powering up significantly.”
“Gameplay-wise, it's identical.”

The graphics have been criticized for being overly simplistic and lacking variety, leading to a repetitive experience that diminishes player engagement over extended gameplay. Many users feel that the art style becomes stale quickly, particularly in a game that requires significant time investment.
“You cannot expect anyone to grind a total of 30+ hours in your game for all achievements with a commercial-free art style that gets old after level 2.”
