It offers a unique idle RPG experience with no forced ads, allowing players to engage at their own pace.

The game can feel repetitive and lacks depth, with limited content and choices as players progress.

The monetization model of the game is generally well-received, with most players appreciating the absence of forced ads and the option to watch ads for rewards. However, some users express concerns about the introduction of forced ads and pay-to-win mechanics, which can detract from the overall experience. While many find the monetization fair and non-intrusive, there are mixed feelings about the grind and the attractiveness of in-app purchases.
- “The premium currency is easy to earn to maintain the advantages they provide, there are no ads which is a welcome change, and has a nice community.”
- “Excellent game, no ads!”
- “Fair monetization”
- “Edit September 2023: The game is being turned for monetization which is fine, but the game dynamics are getting stale and the grind is unfun. 5 stars now down to 3 stars.”
- “Forced ads unless you buy something, and there's no real path for new players to ever catch up with the long-term users or pay-to-win players. Not that there's any real point besides being in a top guild.”
- “Don't be fooled, the grind is there and pay-to-win mechanics are present, albeit not as prevalent and aggravating as most other games, hence why they're advertising as such.”

The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with players appreciating its casual, idle mechanics and lack of forced ads, while others express frustration with the energy (water) system that imposes long wait times. Many find the mechanics enjoyable and the game accessible, though some criticize the repetitive grinding and the presence of pay-to-win elements. Overall, the gameplay is seen as simple yet engaging, appealing to both casual players and those seeking more complexity.

- “Fun idle-ish game with a decent gameplay loop, interesting mechanics, and no forced ads!”
- “Great work there devs, I was surprised by the art, the game mechanics, and the detailed options... but obviously there's a major issue that makes me take one star from the review: it's the water. Nine hours is a lot of waiting time, and there's no option to get some water with game cash or gold coins (except for a 50 coins bundle).”
- “The gameplay is just repeating the same grinding, replacing older equipment with newer ones, and building/updating whatever is available now.”
- “Don't be fooled, for the grind is there and pay-to-win mechanics are present, albeit not as prevalent and aggravating as in most other games, hence why they're advertising as such.”

- “The gameplay is just repeating the same grinding, replacing older equipment by newer ones, and building/updating whatever is available now.”
