Overall, the gameplay is praised for its variety and engaging team raids, offering plenty of activities for players. However, some users express frustration with the constant grind and issues related to party finding, which can hinder the overall enjoyment. Additionally, the censorship of non-offensive language has been noted as a drawback.
- “Great gameplay, so much to do (team raids are a blast).”
- “The gameplay is okay except for the constant grind, and everything you say that isn't even a swear word gets censored.”
- “I can't enjoy the gameplay because I am too shy to find a party in chat, but I can't find the listed party and party members either. I know about the party list menu on the left screen, but I still need to find a party manually.”

The monetization aspect of the game is heavily criticized due to frequent crashes and significant lag when players engage with advertisements or events, leading to a frustrating experience. Users report that these issues occur even on modern devices, detracting from the overall enjoyment of the game.
- “Will lag and/or crash any time you do an advertisement or event outside the basic adventuring. Sometimes even crashes mid-loading, and that's with a 2023 Android device. It's a bit odd for a pixelated game to do that. They say to see support in-game about crashes, but it's hard to do that when it crashes 19 times out of 20 without ever loading.”
- “It's too laggy (FPS drop) every time I watch the ads; it becomes so laggy.”
