The grinding aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players finding it excessively tedious and time-consuming due to limited daily farming opportunities and low drop rates for essential resources.

Character development in the game is widely praised for its stunning character designs and animations, which many reviewers consider top-notch and a significant draw for players. While the story and character backgrounds are noted as engaging, some players feel that the overall character development lacks depth, with certain designs being derivative or lacking uniqueness.

- “The character design and gameplay are great, and in-game currency is pretty generous considering.”

- “The character designs are questionable in quality, ranging from outbursts of creativity to being a blank slate for eye candy.”
- “What was once a game with a few flaws has turned into an unbalanced mess where power scales mean literally nothing as 70k power routinely beats 140k power. Resources are too few to grant any way to overcome what weaknesses you currently have and locks you into singular character development despite having most of the heroes on the active roster.”
- “I want to like it, but the character design is a little bland to me, so I don't have much of an attachment to them.”

- “Although I do have one request and that's to fix the optimization on the phone, it's very laggy and crashes constantly for lower-end phones.”

The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with many players labeling it a "cash grab" due to excessive microtransactions, high prices for in-game purchases, and an overwhelming number of ads that disrupt gameplay. While some users appreciate the game's quality and design, the overall sentiment leans towards frustration over the predatory monetization practices that hinder free-to-play progression and enjoyment.
- “There's also in-game purchases, but it's honestly not that needed unless you want to level up faster.”
- “At launch, it struck a decent power balance for microtransactions, and you could have success in PvP as free-to-play.”
- “Also thankful no ads.”
- “This game is almost a total joke. The graphics are good and the animations are clean, but that's it. Combat is either you stomp or get stomped. For these events, you can't get most of the things from the shop without spending money or praying to God you have the very specific heroes you need to get more drops. The absolute worst problem is the hero rates; I have summoned 9 times in a row, all x10, and didn't get a single 3-star. This game is quite literally a cash grab. Save your time from this.”
- “Game is absolutely loaded with microtransactions, more so than most other games I have tried.”
- “All in all, this is just another cash grabbing pay-to-win gacha game.”
