Overall, the graphics successfully draw players in, but the enjoyment is often overshadowed by mechanical problems.

- “Classic dungeon crawl RPG with stylized and very well-done graphics and artwork.”
- “The graphics are fantastic and the game is fun to play, with plenty of longevity.”
- “I guess the best way for me to sum it up is that it'll sucker you in with pleasing visuals, but leave you severely lacking when it comes to actually 'playing' it.”
- “Many skills are bugged to the brim... multi-hitting moves can literally produce a wide range of bugs ranging from freezing the game, crashing the game, somehow disorienting the screen, to literally blacking out the graphics... I played the game for 2 days simply trying to see how bad they could possibly screw up, until every stage is literally a combination of so-called bugs which makes progression impossible... refund please.”
- “Lastly, on visuals, I would say there isn’t enough variety.”

The reviews highlight that the game is heavily focused on grinding, which can be both enjoyable and tedious depending on the player's preference.

- “The game is far too grindy for my taste.”
- “Everything else about this game is delightful... but the grinding wears down any patience you may have.”
- “Judging by the difficulty curve of the following two dungeons, character progression will demand you do every dungeon with every character, that is a degree of grinding far beyond the worth of the casual-level enjoyment there appears to be had here.”

The game's story is largely criticized for being minimal and lacking depth, with players noting that it feels more like a series of repetitive missions rather than a cohesive narrative.

Overall, the narrative aspect is seen as a significant weakness, with hopes for future improvements.

- “The way that the game is structured really evokes a 'let's go crawl some dungeons' feeling, even if the story seems a bit light.”
- “Hoping they continue to add mission types, etc., but well worth the small price as is.”
- “Story: nope.”
- “I honestly don’t even look at the quests anymore.”

The game's music is characterized by a limited selection of repetitive tracks, often looping just two or three short songs, which can become annoying over time. While the music fits the classical fantasy theme of the game, it is generally considered serviceable but unremarkable, with minimalistic sound effects that contribute to the overall repetitiveness. Some players noted that the volume of the music can be excessively loud, further detracting from the experience.
- “The music fits the game style quite well, with a sort of classical fantasy game feel, but it didn't strike me as anything exemplary -- or terrible, for that matter.”
- “Music, idea, levels - all great!”
- “- Music & SFX: serviceable but nothing remarkable.”
- “The music is extremely repetitive; it is the same 2 or 3 short songs on a constant loop, and the sound effects are also really simple and minimalistic. This isn't a problem in and of itself, but there are so few different sound effects, and they're constantly playing, which just makes it so annoying and repetitive after just a few minutes; hearing the exact same sound effect over and over...”
- “There seems to only be a very small number of music tracks, as I seem to always hear the same one or two when inside a dungeon.”
- “Characters and battles are a bit naïve, and the music is boring.”
