The gameplay is criticized for being repetitive, especially in the early stages, with players noting that the core mechanics are quickly revealed and can feel monotonous. Many feel that the incremental rewards, such as the minimal increase in prestige currency, do not provide a satisfying sense of progress, leading to a lack of engagement over time.

- “The mechanics are intuitive, making it easy to pick up and play.”
- “The variety of challenges in the gameplay keeps it fresh and exciting.”

- “Sorry to say, but the gameplay is very repetitive and there is not much happening. Sometimes you make 4 or 5 runs and you don't even notice any increase.”
