The gameplay features a mix of diverse battle mechanics, including an auto-scrolling dungeon experience with automatic battles and turn-based elements where players can equip tomes for strategic advantages. While initially resembling a basic asset flip, it draws inspiration from titles like *Soda Dungeon* and *Undertale*, incorporating various minigames that enhance the experience. Players can expect a significant increase in pace and engagement after the first hour, with over six hours of gameplay available at an affordable price.
- “Nice diverse battle mechanics.”
- “The pace of the game, both gameplay and story-wise, picks up considerably after about an hour of play.”
- “You traverse into a dungeon with turn-based mechanics; though you have no controls like attack or move, it's all done by itself. However, you do have the ability to equip 4 tomes that you can use to either damage the enemy, give them a negative status effect, or boost yourself.”
- “Mechanics divide between an auto scroller with automatic battles in which you keep advancing or you get thrown out of the dungeon to git gud.”
- “What seems to be a basic asset flip using the same kind of graphics you'd find in 'Creature Clicker - Capture, Train, Ascend' soon after shows that it's more inspired by 'Soda Dungeon' for the main gameplay and 'Undertale' for the minigames.”
