The gameplay is heavily criticized for lacking any functional mechanics, rendering it unplayable; users note that it consists mainly of non-working purchased assets with no coherent game structure.
“This is not a playable game in any stretch of the word. There are a few items in the game, but none of the mechanics of a game can be seen other than a few purchased assets that don't work.”

Overall, the game runs smoothly for many players; however, there is a notable need for additional servers in various countries, including the US, Australia, and Canada, to enhance stability and performance for a broader audience.
“The game itself runs great for me, but it needs servers for other countries like the US, AU, CA, and others.”
