The graphics of the game are generally considered subpar and in need of significant improvement, with many users describing them as clunky and unpolished. While some acknowledge that the visuals are decent, the overall consensus is that they detract from the gaming experience and require a thorough overhaul to meet player expectations.
“I really wanted to like this game. I love ARPGs and this game's features like a strong endgame and unique classes are like a dream come true, but it is not polished at all. Everything is clunky and weird, and the graphics are terrible. The tutorial did not work; I did not know where to go for quests or what to do. If you polish this game, it can be an ARPG that I can really sink my teeth into, but so far it's not.”
“Graphics are decent, but definitely need a once-over.”

The gameplay is reminiscent of classic ARPGs, incorporating unique mechanics that differentiate it from others in the genre, though opinions on these mechanics vary. The developer has clearly invested significant thought into creating a distinctive experience that pays homage to nostalgic titles like Diablo II without simply replicating them.
“The game feels like a classic ARPG, with a few unique mechanics that make it stand out from most. It seems the developer has put a lot of thought into creating a unique experience, while also evoking nostalgia for fans of older games like Diablo II, without being a clone.”
