The gameplay has been described as mediocre and simplistic, primarily resembling a standard dungeon crawler with minimal engagement and difficulty. While some players appreciate the skill tree and map design, many feel the overall experience is lackluster and overpriced, lacking the depth and innovation expected from the franchise.

“The available skill tree choices are nice, and the map design and mechanics are okay.”
“The gameplay is just your simple dungeon crawler but with the characters from the anime, so you might find it boring or not as engaging, but it's still pretty fun.”
