The gameplay has been criticized for its simplicity and lack of depth, leading to a boring experience with underwhelming mechanics and upgrades that fail to make a significant impact. While some players appreciate the smoothness and challenge in later levels, the overall consensus is that the game does not offer anything fresh or memorable compared to other titles in the genre. A unique first-person view is noted as a redeeming feature, but it is not enough to elevate the gameplay experience significantly.
- “Gameplay is the focus here.”
- “The gameplay itself is not bad, but it's nothing memorable either.”
- “Gameplay is challenging, especially in the last two maps, when it's necessary to locate certain combos of towers in exact places to win.”
- “Gameplay is extremely simple and quickly becomes boring, and you just want it to end.”
- “My main gripe with the gameplay (and the whole game, to be honest) is just how boring and generic it feels.”
- “Upgrades can either be purchased during gameplay or in a store, and they are not that impactful – while you can get decent ones that make towers get secondary effects, you will get bland percentual damage increases or cost reductions more often than not.”

- “Graphics are bad, story generic (although to be fair, most of the intro text was cut off and I couldn't read it), and the gameplay is boring and unimaginative.”
