The game's story is criticized for being overly simplistic and lacking depth, with many players finding it short and unengaging, often completing it in under half an hour. While some appreciate the initial setup and the potential for more complex quests, the overall narrative feels contrived and disconnected from gameplay, leading to a desire for more substantial content and progression. Suggestions for improvement include adding more quests and enhancing the storytelling elements to create a richer experience.
- “The soundtrack and art just kind of make it really easy to grind, and even though the story is short and easy, it's pretty fun.”

- “There are two parallel tracks - the dungeon and a short story-like adventure.”
- “Story: just awful, go here do this with no real background, after a couple iterations of that then you have access to everywhere (which is mainly shops/upgrade shops and the dungeon)”

- “I am excited to see what else he does, also the terribly good artwork lol”
- “The drawn art style of the game makes it fun and interesting. It's not a triple-A game or from a large game company, so don't expect a huge game with so much content you can't handle. It's a small indie idle game, and it's fun. If you like idle games, you should give this a try.”
- “You have to love the art style.”
- “Despite the terrible graphics and horrific font, the core of the game is functional.”
- “Its minimalistic, short, no good explanations (what does dex do, mana seems not even used at all by anything), and the graphics are ugly.”

The gameplay is described as simplistic and repetitive, primarily revolving around auto-farming and grinding for upgrades without much depth or explanation of mechanics. While some players appreciate the linear RPG elements, many feel that the game lacks innovation and fails to engage beyond basic idle clicker mechanics, rendering a significant portion of its features ineffective. Overall, it offers a lengthy experience but may not satisfy those seeking variety or complexity.
- “It's remarkable that a game such as this can have such amazing gameplay!”
- “Has literal years of gameplay.”
- “Knights and dungeons actually have a lot to offer in terms of gameplay.”
- “Gameplay: bare bones, basically turn on auto, find the highest monster you can farm, rinse and repeat. Maybe if the quests kept going after the 'story' and gave me different upgrades or stats (kill x of y monster for a skill point); there is no good explanation of... well anything. I can buy drinks that give me percents, what does that mean?”
- “Then you have to idle for about 12 active hours to get to the first ascension with nothing added to the gameplay whatsoever, and then in 1.5 hours you have to click a bit to get 4 more ascensions (with still nothing changing besides ridiculous power boosts) to get all achievements.”
- “Because of this, lots of mechanics become useless (skills, equipment, gym investments, tavern drinks, basically 80% of the game).”
