“This is a fun and fast smash and loot style game with a rockin' soundtrack, but it still has a story.”
“You'll know the story and you'll get to love the characters, and you'll see the huge growth from this indie company.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious and unfulfilling, often feeling that the lengthy combat sequences do not justify the brief moments of enjoyable story and dialogue. After the initial excitement, the grind becomes increasingly hard to endure, detracting from the overall experience.
“The gameplay is tedious and combat feels like a waste of time.”
“It sucks to hate this game because the 20 minutes of grinding rewards you with just 2 minutes of story and dialogue that is fun and entertaining. However, after the second boss, it becomes extremely hard to justify going back to the grind, which feels absolutely pointless and extremely tedious, not in a good way.”

The game exhibits notable stability issues, with users reporting bugs and glitches that affect gameplay, such as untriggered events and audio problems during cutscenes. While it shows potential, these flaws detract from the overall experience.
“So to start and to get the ugly out of the way, this is a spinoff/sequel to the last game, 'Boo Bunny Plague,' which was a buggy, so-so, third-person hack and slash game.”
“In my short time with it so far, it has been a little buggy and sometimes things don't trigger like they should (I had a cutscene audio start up but I was still stuck in gameplay), so I won't say it doesn't have flaws.”
