The gameplay is generally described as fun and easy to learn, particularly on PC, but suffers from issues such as poor mechanics, frustrating targeting, and a lack of variety in content. Players find the initial experience enjoyable, but many express frustration with grindy elements, stamina limitations, and a lack of engaging multiplayer options. Overall, while there are enjoyable aspects, significant improvements are needed to enhance the overall gameplay experience.
- “The gameplay is super fun!”
- “Pretty nice gameplay and controls are easy to learn.”
- “Really fun gameplay and it's Lunia, so I had to give it a try!”
- “Literally no story, a short 'campaign', poor mechanics descriptions, extremely grindy, and frustratingly inaccurate targeting.”
- “Very poor game mechanics. It's mostly a single-player game, so it's kind of boring. You cannot multi-touch in a game where you have to move the champion and attack manually. The game has poor server service and will lag 100% even with 5G net and 4GB RAM. This game needs a thorough recalibration and improvement, or else it will die out very soon due to a lack of players.”
- “The gameplay is kind of boring, and some legendaries are weaker than rares, at least until you get more copies of them to unlock their potentials. I like the co-op, but I wish the dungeon mode was longer.”

- “I would love to see actual story in the game, whether it follows the old story or something new.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessively tedious and frustrating, with long hours spent on repetitive tasks yielding minimal rewards and slow character progression. While some appreciate the generous early-game resources and free energy, the overall experience is marred by poor mechanics, lack of engaging content, and a tedious main quest, leading to a sense of monotony. Many reviewers express a desire for more updates and story elements to enhance the gameplay experience beyond grinding.
- “Literally no story, a short 'campaign', poor mechanics descriptions, extremely grindy, and frustratingly inaccurate targeting.”
- “Grinding for materials is very tedious, long, and boring.”
- “Grinding to improve your characters progresses almost hilariously slow, and even if you hit the appropriate level, the stages are still designed to be extremely difficult.”
monetization

The monetization strategy of the game has been criticized for being overly aggressive, with frequent prompts for microtransactions and a heavy reliance on gacha mechanics for weapons and characters. Players have noted a significant reduction in free gem rewards, making it difficult to progress without spending real money, and the presence of intrusive cash grab pop-ups detracts from the overall experience. While some free energy is provided, the overall sentiment leans towards a perception of greed in the game's monetization approach.
- “The monetization model feels overly aggressive, with frequent prompts for microtransactions that disrupt the gameplay experience.”
- “The gacha system is heavily monetized, featuring both weapons and characters, along with character shards, making it feel quite greedy.”
- “It's very bland, slow, and limited but pushes microtransactions on you every chance it gets.”
- “Changing it to 1 star now because after the update you made it impossible to get gems... you had some achievements that could give you enough gems to buy limited summons with rubies, but now you reduced the amount from 360 to 180 for 2 achievements. Other than that, you can't get any more rubies aside from buying with real money or getting 200 from ads.”
- “Tons of cash grab popups while playing offering packs for money that cover the entire screen.”
