The grinding aspect of the game is a polarizing feature; while many players find it enjoyable and engaging, especially for those who appreciate grind-heavy gameplay, others feel it can become tedious over time. The game requires significant time investment for farming materials and in-game currency, particularly in the early stages, which may lead to a sense of monotony for some. Overall, it caters well to fans of the genre but may not appeal to those seeking a more streamlined experience.
- “It can feel grindy later on.”
- “You need to grind in-game currency daily to be able to free float between classes, which can be somewhat tedious.”
- “Most of the farming tasks take quite a long time to farm up the materials you need in the early game, meaning you spend more time with the game running in the background.”

Overall, the gameplay is described as engaging and smooth, with appealing graphics and enjoyable mechanics, leading to frequent player engagement. However, some users have experienced significant issues, such as sync problems that resulted in lost progress, which detracted from the overall fun. Despite these concerns, many appreciate the game's production values and find it a solid alternative to similar titles.
- “However, the graphics are appealing, the gameplay loop is decent, and I've found myself checking in on it many times a day, sometimes idling it on the second monitor while I do other things.”
- “Good mechanics and cute animations.”
- “I’m actually confused by the bad reviews because my gameplay has been smooth and I haven't faced any of the bugs or issues others have mentioned.”
- “There's some kind of sync issue that made me lose a ton of progress over the first couple of days of release, so really there's zero point in playing the game since the gameplay isn't, well... it's not fun at all, really.”
- “In short, I think it's a great Melvor-like with higher production values, but simplified mechanics compared to Melvor Idle.”
