The game offers a nostalgic experience reminiscent of classic titles like Might and Magic and Wizardry, providing hours of exploration and character development.
Character creation is straightforward, and the game features a variety of skills, classes, and an engaging story that ties up loose ends effectively.
Despite its rough edges, the game has a lot of potential and is enjoyable for fans of old-school RPGs, with a decent amount of content for its price.

The combat system is poorly designed, lacking proper feedback, animations, and clarity, making it difficult to follow and enjoy battles.
There are numerous bugs and UI issues, including overlapping windows, glitchy skill books, and navigation problems that can hinder gameplay.
The game feels unfinished, with limited quests, a confusing skill system, and a lack of polish that detracts from the overall experience.

The story in the game has received mixed feedback; while some players find it good, many criticize the lack of engaging side quests and a clear narrative direction, especially in its alpha state. Reviewers suggest that the game would benefit from a more developed storyline and clearer quest visibility to enhance player engagement. Overall, the current storytelling elements are seen as insufficient, with calls for improvement before future updates.
- “✔️ Interesting quests (without modern signs where to go).”
- “Think Might and Magic VI-VIII, not Skyrim :) People are either quest givers and/or merchants and trainers.”
- “Past the first couple of areas, the NPCs have not given many side quests for extra reasons to go clear out areas.”
- “-story: none, it is an alpha, which makes this game not worth playing when I could just mindlessly kill things in plenty of other games that are AAA or indie studios that have various levels of backing.”
- “Another thought for the dev is before version 0.0.10, make some sort of story, even if it is not finished or fully fleshed out, but something to give the player some direction and make quests more visible.”

The graphics of the game are generally considered mediocre, with users noting that while they are not pixelated or ugly, they fall short of modern standards and can appear outdated.

Overall, while the graphics may not impress, they do not detract significantly from the gameplay experience.
- “Not much of a graphical thing, but the graphics could look a bit better.”
- “Yes, the graphics will be outdated, and many of the elements are very confusing, but don’t let this scare you; in a couple of hours, you will figure it out and start enjoying the game.”
- “I played this on beautiful (max) settings, and I cannot say it was the best looking.”
- “Graphics are simple, so don't expect Horizon Zero Dawn equivalent.”

The music in the game has been criticized for its repetitive nature, with players noting that while the initial track is pleasant, it quickly becomes monotonous after repeated listens. Many users found it so tedious that they opted to mute the game and listen to their own music instead. Overall, the soundtrack fails to maintain engagement over time.
- “The music repeats the same song whenever you wander the map. It's a nice song the first five times, but as a musician, it got boring fast, so I just muted my TV and played my own music.”
- “The music is repetitive and becomes tedious quickly. While it starts off pleasant, it loses its charm after a few loops, leading me to turn off the sound entirely.”
- “The soundtrack is limited and lacks variety. After hearing the same tune repeatedly while exploring, I found myself losing interest and opting for my own playlist instead.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious, particularly early on, as it can lead to prolonged periods of repetitive gameplay. However, some users note that encountering higher-level mobs can alleviate the monotony and provide a more engaging experience as they progress. Overall, while grinding is a significant part of the game, it shouldn't deter players from continuing.
- “Still, it was the only really tedious part so far, and you'll probably hit it early, so don't judge the game by that bit.”
- “With more than 4 hours in and still on the starting island, but with lots of grinding, I finally got into the temple, killed the first monster, but the second one quickly clobbered my level 7 team punch after punch!”
- “There are some higher level mobs to make it less tedious.”
