The gameplay is a mixed bag, featuring ambitious element mechanics that often lack clarity and depth, leading to a reliance on luck and specific deck builds. While the combo-based mechanics and progression can be enjoyable, some players find the experience repetitive and the overall gameplay lacking in excitement, particularly when playing as a "legendary dragon." Despite these criticisms, the game offers a unique take on the deck-building genre with smooth mechanics and impressive visuals, appealing to fans of roguelike games, though it requires further refinement to reach its full potential.
- “The gameplay progression feels great.”
- “The combo-based mechanics are a nice twist on the standard deck-building formula.”
- “The mechanics are incredibly smooth, it showcases enjoyable gameplay that fans of roguelike deckbuilders will appreciate.”
- “The gameplay feels weak and lacks depth, with limited animations and uninspired mechanics that don’t evoke the sense of power you'd expect from such a legendary creature.”
- “Their mechanic is difficult to navigate and it largely depends on either luck of the draw or a very specific deck build to handle them at the same time, and it gets really annoying when you have to fight them 2-3 times on the map to progress.”
- “The gameplay is constantly limited by what you are not allowed to have and an artificial need to grind and fail until you have enough experience to unlock the cards worth using.”

The game's stability is criticized for being quite poor, particularly during the tutorial, where players encounter significant bugs such as unresponsive UI and forced interactions that obscure gameplay. While some users acknowledge the demo's free status as a mitigating factor, the overall impression is that the game suffers from numerous glitches that raise concerns about the quality of the full release.
- “Awful start, in the tutorial it forces you to use a specific card on a specific spot, and darkens everything except a circle around the card it wants you to pick, which is fine except for the fact that the enemies are also in the dark spot, so you can barely see the enemy it wants you to attack. Also, seemingly the quit game button doesn't work, so I had to use task manager to get rid of it. Might get better, but I can't be bothered to go through the buggy tutorial.”
- “Often the UI glitches and does not react to commands, or selects the wrong tile on the field.”
- “For a free demo it is fine, but I don’t really have much hope for the full release if the devs think such a buggy mess will draw people into the paid game.”
