The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players praising it as beautiful and reminiscent of titles like Octopath Traveler, while others find it underwhelming or sleep-inducing. Overall, the soundtrack is generally considered enjoyable, contributing positively to the game's charm and atmosphere.

“The soundtrack and sound design in general is also pretty enjoyable.”
“I love the art, music, and the amount of control I have is about what I want in an autobattler.”

The game's replayability is a mixed bag; while some players appreciate its accessibility and potential for high scores, others find it lacking depth and content after a few playthroughs. Although it offers enjoyable gameplay initially, many feel that once the main objectives are completed, there is little incentive to return. Future content updates could enhance its replay value significantly.
“I love the game; it is fully accessible to the visually impaired and has great replay value. The overall experience is great, and the developers respond quickly to feedback.”
“Really good so far; I clocked it in just over an hour, but there's a lot of replayability if they continue to release content for the game.”
“The game is painfully short, but its replay value offsets the length. Once you've ranked every single unit to level 3, there isn't much left to do other than aim for a high score.”
