The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some praising the engaging artwork and character designs, while others criticize the outdated UI and overall visual quality, likening it to a remastered PS3 title.

- “Outdated UI and menus, ugly graphics.”

Players appreciate the grinding aspect of the game, noting that it allows for continuous farming of materials and crafting of stronger gear without significant restrictions, such as stamina limits.

- “The cards can also be obtained by exchanging materials which you can get by grinding specific dungeons.”
