The gameplay is characterized by a confusing tutorial and poorly explained mechanics, leading to a mix of underpowered and overpowered elements that detract from the experience. While there are some interesting mechanics and a smooth, relaxing gameplay flow, the overall loops fall short of modern idle game standards, with many features feeling ineffective or misaligned with their intended purpose. Despite these issues, there is potential for improvement, particularly in the crafting and healing mechanics.
“There are some nice mechanics and generally interesting to play, at least at the start.”
“In mechanics, the game has a great line towards greatness; it is possible to make some improvements as well as enhance the utility of your monsters.”
“Gameplay is smooth, making the experience relaxing.”
“The tutorial is a wall of text which often loosely describes what the developer intended to convey to the player, but the mechanics of several things are either extremely under-powered or very overpowered.”
“The names for things in the crafting process don't match the actual items in the game, and the game mechanics of what resources make what are poorly explained or not explained at all.”
“The vast majority of mechanics either do not affect gameplay, affect it slightly (e.g., some automation that was supposed to consume two different resources to produce a third, but when one input resource is missing, the other gets consumed without any profit), or are just dealbreakers.”
