The gameplay is a blend of classic platforming elements reminiscent of "Donkey Kong Country" and "Ghouls 'n Ghosts," featuring a variety of weapons and monster encounters. While the humor and visual aesthetics are praised, some players noted issues with weapon balance and technical performance, such as screen resizing. Overall, it offers enjoyable, family-friendly gameplay at an accessible price, making it a worthwhile experience for fans of the genre.
- “The gameplay is very similar in that your main weapon is a throwing lance, and along the way you can pick up other weapons like daggers, axes, etc. The monsters you fight are also inspired by that series and include zombies, skeletons, bats, and the like.”
- “I enjoyed it; if you like the Ghouls 'n Ghosts series style of gameplay, it is worth checking out. If you have kids and want them to play a game like Ghosts 'n Goblins without giving them high blood pressure, it is well worth a look. For such a cheap asking price, there is no reason not to play this game if it looks interesting to you at all.”
- “A hilarious, silly story, fun Mario-like gameplay about an hour long, and amazing art and animations.”
- “In spite of the titular fart jokes, they don't surface in the gameplay at all.”
- “I hoped the gameplay would be correct but actually it doesn't run so well and returns always to a small size when you maximize it without using full screen mode.”
- “Some weapons you collect are clearly a downgrade from others, but it does vary the gameplay rapidly.”
