Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be somewhat tedious, noting that it relies heavily on RNG for upgrades, which can disproportionately benefit nighttime play over daytime activities.
“The only problem I have with the game (as of the time of writing this) is that it's kind of RNG-based; the upgrades mostly favor the night rather than the day, and it feels a bit grindy.”
