Gameplay is widely criticized for being generic and unoriginal, relying heavily on repetitive base-building mechanics common in many mobile games, and incorporates pay-to-win elements. Ads misleadingly portray the gameplay, creating false expectations, and some users find the experience bland, poorly optimized for certain devices, and marred by uninspired design choices.
- “The gameplay, the edits, the commentary—everything was on point!”
- “The gameplay is okay.”
- “And the menu and gameplay elements aren't optimized for foldables (my phone has a squarish screen).”
- “Join moody, princess eurolan, kyle and pathfinder mouse on another microtransaction base builder that flirts with copyright infringement enough to drive you through the tutorial, but lacks any real gameplay beyond the cookie-cutter base building games saturating mobile gaming.”
- “Same mechanics as too many other games and same pay-to-win tactics.”
- “Boring gameplay; everything is messed up with lots of fog and the view is not captivating.”

The game suffers from frequent freezing and lagging issues, particularly during extraction phases, which significantly impacts playability. Users have attempted multiple fixes without success, indicating persistent stability problems.
