The music in the game is widely criticized for being overly repetitive, consisting of a short, annoying loop that detracts from the overall experience. Many players find it grating and cheesy, with some even opting to mute it entirely to avoid frustration. Despite its shortcomings, a few players acknowledge a certain addictive quality that keeps them engaged, reminiscent of a catchy but disliked radio song.
“Even if the 60 levels weren't draining enough, playing the same thing over and over with no variety, the music loop is awful.”
“I usually don't bring up music, but the single loop is grating.”
“Kiss is a legendary rock group, kind of surprising the music for the game is this bad. If their music sounded like a low bitrate MIDI, I'd imagine the groupies would be running away from the stage, not towards it.”

The gameplay has been criticized for being a lackluster imitation of "Plants vs. Zombies," with many mechanics directly copied but lacking originality and polish. Reviewers noted that the experience feels dull and uninspired, with low-quality voice acting further detracting from the overall enjoyment. Overall, the gameplay fails to offer anything engaging or innovative, making it an inferior alternative to its predecessor.
“With slightly enjoyable gameplay.”
“However, without even looking too closely, you can immediately think of which plants from Plants vs. Zombies each tower is mechanically copying, and it copies them almost exactly in terms of duration, area of effect, cost, and whatnot.”
“Conclusion: If this had a lot more polish than it currently does and addressed all the previous issues, I would probably be able to live with the mechanics copying Plants vs. Zombies. But as it stands, this is an all-around inferior version, and the reskin does not shine enough in terms of flavor to even earn its place in the library.”
“The voice acting was done with what sounds like a low-quality mic, and the gameplay couldn't be more dull.”

The graphics are criticized for being fixed with no widescreen support, leading to a distorted aspect ratio and a lack of high-resolution options, which diminishes overall visual polish. While the cartoon graphics have a decent appearance, they are ultimately described as cheesy and underwhelming, contributing to a mixed reception of the game's visual presentation.
“On the surface, it has good-looking cartoon graphics.”
“The graphics are fixed and there's no widescreen support, resulting in a distorted aspect ratio.”
“The game does not have high resolution options and the overall polish of the visuals is somewhat lacking, disappointingly.”
“Cheesy all the way with bad graphics, annoying rock music, and an irritating upgrade system (you have to pause the game to upgrade your items), but why do I keep on playing it?”

The humor in the game is seen as a mixed bag; while the premise is amusing and some players appreciate the value from bundle purchases, the enemy flavor text lacks the consistent wit found in titles like Plants vs. Zombies, resulting in a hit-or-miss experience.
“I thought the premise was funny, and I got it for cheap as part of a bundle.”
