    Grinding in the game can be frustrating but serves well for farming currency, with some later stages requiring more effort. While earlier versions had paywalls affecting progression, the current version has reduced grinding overall, allowing players to mix and match skills without excessive repetition. However, respec costs and non-refundable characters require careful consideration.

    • “Last time I played this game was several years ago when it just stopped opening on my iPad 2, and all I remember is having a difficult time progressing; grinding for currency and access to better skills was paywalled (it was free-to-play).”
    • “Some of the later levels require a good bit of grinding, but you don't necessarily need to do that to beat the game.”
    • “Grinding was drastically decreased as well.”

  • gameplay

    • “Other than the nostalgia value, it's a really fun and addicting hack and slash arcade game with a pretty catchy soundtrack. I used to sink so many hours on it back on mobile alone.”
