The game features beautiful graphics, great animations, and a unique mechanic that gives it its own identity within the deckbuilding genre.
There is a significant amount of content available, including multiple worlds, NPCs, side quests, and a variety of cards and upgrades.
The gameplay loop is satisfying, with a good sense of progression and the ability to construct your starting deck, making it enjoyable for fans of roguelike deckbuilders.

The game suffers from a lack of content, with many players finishing the story campaign in under 10 hours and feeling it is more like a demo.
There are significant balancing issues, with players experiencing stat-blocks that hinder progress regardless of deck-building efforts, leading to a repetitive grind.
The combat can feel slow and tedious due to unskippable animations and a lack of enemy variety, which detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game.

The gameplay is a mix of polished deck-building mechanics reminiscent of titles like "Slay the Spire," featuring unique twists and satisfying progression through card upgrades. However, some players find it repetitive due to limited enemy variety and excessive grinding, alongside issues like unskippable cutscenes and a frustrating final boss. Overall, while the game boasts great art and sound, opinions are divided on its fun factor and depth.
- “This is a very fun, polished, complete deck builder with a unique mechanic that gives the game its own identity and is central to play.”
- “The gameplay loop is quite satisfying for what I've seen, there's a nice feeling of progression in each run since you get to add/improve cards in between runs.”
- “Solid gameplay, you will enjoy it if you like turn-based strategy games such as Slay the Spire or even Darkest Dungeon.”
- “Only 3 'levels', too much grind, unskippable cutscenes, atrocious last boss, and really weird mechanics (who's responsible for the 'purity' status?) all together make the whole experience way more painful than it needs to be.”
- “The gameplay is frankly boring; there is no variety in enemies, and you will do the same thing over and over again.”
- “Not to mention it doesn't use the Wakfu IP very well; you do get references to other characters from time to time, but it could honestly be something outside of the namesake considering the gameplay.”

- “The art style is gorgeous and it plays perfectly on Steam Deck!”
- “Love the art style and the game mechanics.”
- “Initially I was very excited by the aesthetics.”
- “The art and animation is pretty well done (though not a fan of the art style myself), but I sure hope there's a lot more work to be done on the flow of this one, because I haven't been as bored by a card game in ages.”

The game's story features five distinct worlds, each populated with unique NPCs, side quests, and end bosses, but the overall narrative development is considered weak. Players found the campaign challenging due to the reliance on base cards, making progression difficult until upgrades are obtained. While the art design and music received praise, the story itself lacks depth, leaving players eager for more character exploration.
- “The game is also really pretty and I can't wait to know more about the characters and the story.”
- “5 distinct worlds I have encountered, each with its own NPCs, side quests, and end bosses.”
- “The rift mode you unlock after beating the story is basically a roguelike card battler where your build changes every run if you want to.”
- “I finished the story in less than 10 hours.”
- “- no strong story development”
- “You do not start with the deck you spent the story improving but rather select from random cards.”

The music in the game is generally praised for being enjoyable and well-composed, enhancing the overall experience, especially during initial playthroughs. However, some players noted that it may become repetitive over time, leading them to consider muting it in later sessions. Overall, the music complements the game's impressive art and animations, contributing positively to the gameplay.
- “The music is really good and the fundamentals of the game are really nice.”
- “Loved the demo so I bought it instantly... awesome game with nice system, music and combat, also animation is great.”
- “That being said, the game has great music, amazing art, and top-notch animations.”

Reviews indicate that grinding is a significant aspect of the game, often seen as a necessary but tedious requirement for progression. While some players find it integral to the genre, others express frustration with the amount of grinding needed to advance, suggesting it detracts from the overall experience. The consensus is that grinding is expected in this type of game, but its impact on enjoyment varies among players.
- “This is not a resource management game, it's a grinding game.”
- “Some people complain about the grinding required to get to the next level; all true, but as far as I know, it comes with the genre.”
- “With deck builders, there isn't the same 'get good' dynamic because those experienced at the genre can get through the 'balanced' games immediately. Grinding through 'make me weaker to give me a challenge' doesn't push the right psychological buttons for me.”

optimization

Players have expressed frustration with the game's optimization, citing high costs for permanent enhancements and minimal in-game boosts. Additionally, the rapid growth of monsters compared to player progression has made the experience feel unbalanced and unenjoyable, leading some to refrain from playing until improvements are made.
- “Gold is expensive to die for permanent enhancement, and the in-game boost is almost non-existent. Monsters grow faster than the player, which is annoying to play. I won't play again until the game experience is optimized.”
