    The gameplay is characterized by simple and easy-to-learn mechanics, including drag-and-drop movement and basic battle systems influenced by terrain. However, players note a lack of variety and depth, with limited strategic options beyond the initial use of tactical cards, resulting in a gameplay experience that lacks advanced difficulty. Overall, while enjoyable, the gameplay may not satisfy those seeking more complexity.
