Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious, as the inability to build additional builders or goblins leads to a bottleneck that hampers productivity, making progress feel slow and frustrating.
“At that point, it becomes very tedious to continue, because you can no longer build additional builders or goblins to speed up the game. Each one you build just makes the game slower. There's no point in creating additional mines, smelters, or smiths, because the number of goblins is the bottleneck in making them productive.”
“The grinding feels endless and repetitive, making it hard to stay engaged with the game.”
“I find myself doing the same tasks over and over again, which makes the experience feel more like a chore than fun.”
