The gameplay is characterized by a simple turn-based card mechanic where players select a card each turn, but many users find the mechanics inscrutable and poorly explained, leading to confusion about objectives. While the gameplay loop and aesthetics are praised, there are significant flaws, including excessively long battles and vague campaign objectives, indicating a need for better tuning and clarity in the game's mechanics. Overall, the compulsive nature of the gameplay is noted, but it is marred by a jumble of variables and a lack of engaging outcomes.
- “Smooth card mechanics.”
- “The gameplay is simple enough; you play a single card each turn and then see what happens.”
- “Several major flaws in the battle mechanics including excessively long battles and losing battles without taking part in combat.”
- “As for gameplay, in addition to the outcomes being pretty boring, there is barely any explanation of how to play the game, or even what the objective is in a 'normal' game, which forces you to play a campaign, but even though they're described when you choose which mode you want to play, the objectives in the campaign are vaguely defined too.”
- “This game is also quite cheap, and gameplay is compulsive, with everything being a constant jumble of offsetting variables against a random card draw mechanic.”

Overall, the visuals do not meet the expectations set by the gameplay and thematic elements.
- “Graphics are bad, the UI is not very logical, and there is not enough in-game information for a new player.”
- “First of all, the graphics are mediocre, which I'm usually willing to look past for a small indie game like this, but the design is just downright unappealing in this game.”

The humor in the game is highlighted by the absurdity of its cumbersome combat system, where players may find themselves hilariously battling aliens with bows and arrows due to the lack of guidance. This comedic element adds a layer of entertainment to the otherwise frustrating gameplay experience.
- “There is no guide to the combat system, which is also hilariously cumbersome, and you will probably wind up fighting aliens with bows and arrows at some point.”
