The gameplay is characterized by a vast array of abilities that lack significant impact, leading to a sense of redundancy. While the synergy mechanic offers a fresh twist, the overall experience is marred by a short playtime and a grind-heavy progression system. Despite some enjoyable elements, many players find the gameplay ultimately unengaging and frustrating due to poor UI and translation issues.
- “This game is a coop survivor game similar to Vampire Survivor and other games in the genre. It has a fresh take and interesting synergy mechanic, making it quite different from Vampire Survivor.”
- “Solid gameplay.”
- “Unlocks allow for tech upgrades that boost stats or introduce new game mechanics.”
- “In terms of gameplay, there is seemingly no limit on the number of abilities you have, and none of them really feel impactful to have and use.”
- “The game is quite short; you can unlock 95% of the content after 10 hours (if you figure out the abusing mechanics), then you just grind the digits.”
- “Awful UI, awful translations, awful gameplay.”

- “It's got UI and graphics like a 2000s era flash game, and there are some minor quality of life improvements needed (like banning some upgrades), but it's pretty polished for a survivors type game.”
- “Graphics look sterile, like clip arts pasted on the screen.”
- “Stages are mainly just a change in scenery, and enemies are a change in graphics.”
