The gameplay is characterized as a blend of roleplaying and shooting mechanics, featuring a classic art style and enjoyable action. However, players express a desire for improved visibility by removing unnecessary elements and suggest that the gameplay should pause when accessing the menu to prevent interruptions. Additionally, there are calls for more variety in enemy patterns and a greater challenge, as some feel that gacha mechanics detract from the traditional bullet hell experience.
“Classic art style with fun gameplay and gives free stuff right away.”
“It's fun and amazing, cool gameplay and action!”
“The gameplay is more of a roleplaying shooting skill than a dedicated arcade style shooting game.”

The monetization strategy has received criticism for requiring excessive ad viewing—over five hours for valuable rewards—while offering minimal compensation in the form of ad coins. Players express frustration over the lack of alternative rewards and the inability to save progress or link accounts, leading to a perception of aggressive monetization practices.
“The only issue I really see with this is the ad coin function. Anything of value that one would spend ad coins on requires over 5 hours of ads to be watched. How about at least giving silver coins or something to go with the measly 5 ad coins per watch? Also, why bother collecting the puzzle pieces if you have to watch 5 hours of ads to collect the unit as well?”
“Can't watch ads, can't link account or save progress.”
“Also very hungry with all the monetization.”

The reviews indicate that a compelling story is essential for maintaining player engagement, as a lack of narrative can lead to boredom. Additionally, the ability to control multiple characters and engage in combat adds excitement, but without a strong storyline, the gameplay may feel shallow. Overall, players appreciate character diversity but emphasize the importance of a well-developed narrative.
“If you are trying to release a game, you need to playtest it for problems like this on many different phones or programs, because if it can't boot, then any programming and story you worked on will go to waste.”
“It gets boring quickly when there is no storyline. I prefer to download games one by one, but it's cool to have all characters from different games fighting at the same time.”
