    The gameplay loop is generally solid and engaging, featuring a mechanic for selecting relics between rounds to gain buffs. However, a significant bug occurs later in the game where relics are spammed during rounds, disrupting the experience. Despite this, no other major gameplay issues are noted.

    • “I didn't notice any bugs or gameplay issues.”
    • “There is a mechanic where you get to pick relics between rounds for buffs.”
    • “There is a mechanic where you pick relics between rounds for buffs, but further in, there is a massive bug where you get spammed with relics during rounds in addition to between them.”
    • “Has some bugs but the overall gameplay loop works just fine.”
    • “That is the entire gameplay loop.”

  • story

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is intertwined with challenging gameplay that can feel frustrating due to the reliance on rare perks and weapons needed to progress, especially in the final mission. This grind-heavy approach may detract from the narrative experience as players must repeatedly fail to advance.

  • grinding

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Grinding in the game can be frequent even at a normal pace, with some players encountering repetitive tasks early on. However, unlimited perk farming is highlighted as a positive aspect that adds value to the grind.

    • “I don't know how that didn't come up in testing since I've run across it a few times in under 2 hours with a pretty normal grinding pace.”

  • graphics

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Users criticize the graphics, alleging that the developers use AI-generated text and graphics extensively, including the UI and trailer, and accuse them of dishonesty in their Steam store disclaimer.

    • “They lie blatantly in their Steam store disclaimer, and it's obvious they use it for text, practically all the graphics, UI, and I'd even venture to say the trailer.”

  • humor

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Users find the humor in the game to be unintentional and derived from its broken or glitchy elements, which adds to their enjoyment despite any flaws.

  • monetization

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Users feel that while the game offers value for its price, poorly designed and hastily implemented monetization can make it feel like a cash grab rather than a quality experience. Careful, thoughtful design is preferred over aggressive or low-effort monetization.
