The gameplay is generally considered fine, but it suffers from poor mechanics and AI, leading to a seemingly randomized selection of winners that detracts from the experience. Players express hope for improvements in future iterations.
“The gameplay is engaging and keeps you on your toes.”
“I love how the gameplay mechanics are intuitive yet challenging.”
“The variety of gameplay options makes each session feel fresh and exciting.”
“Terrible mechanics and AI in the game. The game picks the winner early on, which seems to be randomized, but the player with AI is terrible for gameplay and there's no way to adjust. Hopefully, it will improve in future games.”
