The game has a nice concept and implements idle gameplay effectively, allowing players to leave it running in the background while they engage in other activities.
Players can feel a sense of progress with each upgrade, as the multipliers and upgrades provide a satisfying sense of advancement.
Some users find it to be one of the best idle games available, appreciating the mechanics and the potential for long-term engagement.

The game is painfully slow, especially at the beginning, leading to a frustrating experience where meaningful progress takes an excessively long time.
There is no offline progress, meaning players must keep the game running to make any advancements, which can be inconvenient.
Technical issues, such as losing progress upon a PC crash, make the game unplayable for some, as there are no reliable save options.

The gameplay has been criticized for failing to meet basic standards expected by PC gamers, with mechanics that feel tedious and unrefined. Players experience slow progression through upgrades that become increasingly expensive, which detracts from the overall enjoyment, although the game does incorporate idle gameplay elements effectively.
- “You can upgrade again for slightly more points, etc. This is the first mechanic.”
- “But at the same time, it perfectly implements an idle gameplay.”
- “From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard, just like the gameplay fails to approach any standard.”
- “The second mechanic, the one that is really the thorn in the side of the game, is the 'converter' (in the photos it's the thing to the right, underneath 'multiplier points').”
- “You slowly inch forward, over days of gameplay, and with every time you do this reset, the upgrades get slightly more expensive, remember?”

- “While there are options to change the resolution for the game, all this does is scale up the simplistic 2D art assets used to make the game, which makes little or no difference to the graphics quality.”
- “Without any other substantial graphics tweaks, it's not possible for gamers to improve the lackluster 2D visuals.”

The monetization strategy of the game resembles that of a mobile title, with players feeling that it heavily relies on in-app purchases to expedite progress, suggesting a grind-heavy experience.

- “I appreciate that the game offers cosmetic items for purchase, but they don't affect gameplay balance.”
- “The optional purchases enhance the experience without being necessary to progress, which is a refreshing approach.”
- “If I didn't know any better, I'd assume it was a mobile game with in-app purchases to speed up the grind.”
- “The monetization model feels overly aggressive, making it hard to enjoy the game without spending money.”
- “It's frustrating that progress is locked behind paywalls, which detracts from the overall experience.”

Users report significant stability issues, noting that any blue screen or forced restart while the game is running results in a complete loss of progress, requiring a full restart of the game.

- “I've experienced multiple instances of the game freezing, requiring me to restart my system each time.”
