The story mode is criticized for its brevity, lasting only 20-30 minutes and featuring only two playable characters out of a ten-character roster, which many players found disappointing. While some enjoyed the quick-paced narrative and found it fun in multiplayer settings, others felt the storyline lacked depth and coherence, especially compared to the richer narratives of the comics. Overall, the limited content and repetitive nature of the story mode left many players unsatisfied and questioning the game's value.
“I beat the main story in under 30 minutes and played with the free play a little, but the limited time I experienced was more fun than I've had playing most mainstream fighters.”
“Even the single player story mode is fun and challenging.”
“The story was both good and bad.”
“The story plays out almost exactly the same regardless of who you play as.”
“In a game that has a main focus on story mode, how come it's so limited?”
“The storyline is surprisingly dumb.”

The gameplay has been described as a disappointing imitation of the classic Power Stone series, featuring simplistic mechanics and a lack of engaging content. While some appreciate the tighter fighting mechanics, many find the enemy AI unchallenging and the overall experience forgettable, lacking the fun and replayability of its predecessors. Players express a desire for more variety and depth in gameplay elements, as well as a broader range of unlockable items.
“Power Stone had a similar issue, but the key difference is that the gameplay felt so fun; I'd be willing to play the same arcade mode again, just to see if I could play it better or faster, or more importantly, try out other characters.”
“This is Power Stone with tighter fighting mechanics.”
“While I wasn't a fan of the characters or the initial art design, the gameplay is a solid nod to the original Dreamcast party fighter.”
“What I wanted was a spiritual successor to the Power Stone games, or at least something that got pretty close to them. What I got was an interesting, but largely forgettable clone with a kind of cheap enemy AI that counters everything and gameplay that doesn't nearly feel as impactful and satisfying as the games from over 20 years ago.”
“Items in the game are quite limited, and you do not unlock more items through gameplay, unfortunately.”
“Gameplay kind of sucks.”

The game suffers from significant stability issues, including bugs that lead to freezing after completion and a lack of content, such as limited levels and characters. Overall, players find the experience lacking and in need of urgent fixes.
“The game is really poor; its biggest issues are few levels, few characters with no real differences in skills, a little bit buggy, and not a lot of environmental elements to help you during fights. I finished it in 30 minutes, and the multiplayer is as poor as the rest.”
“Though the game freezes after beating it, which needs to be fixed as soon as possible.”
