    The graphics of the game are consistently praised for their clean and appealing art style, particularly in the design of monsters, characters, and weapons. While the visuals are noted to be impressive, some reviewers mention that the game lacks content and variety.

    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay is often criticized for being initially boring and repetitive, with a shallow loop and plain map design. While some players feel it improves over time, many find that after a few hours, there is little left to engage with, and the lack of unique mechanics and special events detracts from the overall experience. Despite these issues, the art style is praised, and some players find the gameplay acceptable, albeit slower than preferred.

    • “Great art style, great gameplay.”
    • “Slower gameplay than I like, but pretty okay.”
    • “One may argue that it gets better as you progress, but expect some boring gameplay for a good while at first.”
    • “Some other negatives are shallow and repetitive gameplay loop, plain map design, lack of special events, and no unique mechanics.”
    • “You figure out which weapons are useless and which aren't pretty quickly, and then after just 9 hours of gameplay, there's nothing left to do.”

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is visually appealing and enjoyable, akin to a vampire survivors alternative; however, it suffers from significant optimization issues, with players experiencing drastic frame rate drops from 144fps to as low as 2fps.

    • “Pretty and very fun vampire survivors alternative, but the game seems to have some serious optimization problems. I went from 144 fps to 2 fps :(”
