The gameplay is characterized by a mix of extreme difficulty and repetitiveness, with some players finding the punishing nature appealing while others criticize the shallow mechanics and poor camera movement. Although the game features a satisfying loop of collecting runes and offers dynamic elements through various classes, it struggles with depth and can feel too long for its simplistic gameplay. Overall, while there are enjoyable aspects like the fighting mechanics and level design, the experience is marred by finicky controls and a lack of variety.

“Dynamic gameplay, there are several different classes in the game (implemented simply though).”
“Gameplay mechanics are great and well implemented with the level design.”
“Extremely punishing gameplay, although that might appeal to some people.”
“Very repetitive gameplay.”

Players find the grinding in the game to be a mixed experience; while some enjoy it initially, many feel it becomes tedious and repetitive over time. The game has potential but suffers from unbalanced combat and a lack of engaging content, making the grinding feel more like a chore than an enjoyable challenge. Overall, it may serve as a decent entry point for newcomers to the genre, but seasoned players might find it lacking.
“Started off fun, but as my time with the game went on, it got more and more tedious.”
“The bones are there for a decent game, but as it is now, it's tedious, slow, incredibly generic, and the fighting is badly unbalanced and glitchy; there's just not much to do.”
“As for people who might be intrigued by the genre or find this game setting particularly curious, you can always check the gameplay and ask people that have played it, but in general, though a little grindy at times, I think this game might be a good entry point.”

Players note that the game's replayability is hindered by a limited melee range, slow attack mechanics, and a lack of weapon variety, which can make runs feel repetitive. While some replay value is derived from plot development, the overall experience may not encourage multiple playthroughs.
“The replay value is achieved through the development of the plot, keeping players engaged with each playthrough.”
“Each run feels unique, thanks to the variety of choices and outcomes that can change the story.”
“The game encourages multiple playthroughs by offering different character paths and endings to explore.”
“The melee range is very short, which slows down the player. The lack of weapon variety really hurts replayability; my final run was when I finally saw three new swords that I had never encountered before. Whether it's RNG or stage-based, it does not help replayability.”
“Replay value is achieved only through the development of the plot.”
