The gameplay is criticized for being overly repetitive and lacking tactical depth, as enemies primarily chase players without offering strategic challenges. Players also note frustrating bugs and inconsistencies, such as being forced into specific weapon paths without clear explanations. While the game features a visually appealing design and an enjoyable endless mode, it ultimately falls short in terms of content and engaging mechanics.
“I love the revolutionary resurrect time mechanic.”
“This is a 3rd person Unity-made game, with a 'succubus' anime character and shooter mechanics.”
“The game is visually strong and the endless mode is enjoyable, but comes up short in terms of story, audio direction, and is further weighed down by some deeply repetitive, frustrating, and occasionally game-breaking buggy gameplay.”
“Another gameplay element that mixes with story is that some levels force you into specific weapon paths, such as being forced to use the sword with no explanation, even though you consistently keep your guns and ammo for all but two levels (including the sword level).”
“These types of inconsistencies could be explained away by some general writing, but instead you’re left wondering on the conditions of the level that are the exception to the regular gameplay experience.”

The game's story is minimal and serves primarily as a backdrop for gameplay, revolving around a protagonist tasked with defeating numerous enemies across six realms due to a failed ritual. While the narrative setup is intriguing, it lacks depth and coherence, often feeling secondary to the action, with some gameplay mechanics leading to frustrating experiences. Overall, the focus on combat over storytelling leaves the narrative feeling underdeveloped and repetitive.
“Each level in the story mode contains a new weapon to add to your arsenal, some additional health, as well as ammo for your weapons.”
“Em is way more exciting, challenging, and fair than the default story mode.”
“The bit of story setup in this game is that a ritual has gone wrong, and for reasons that are unbeknownst to us, our protagonist has to go and kill hundreds if not thousands of enemies across six different realms to right the wrongs of some ne’er-do-wells.”
“The weaker of my criticisms come from this game's story.”
“For the most part, I get it, the focus isn’t on the story.”

The graphics in the game are highly praised for their clarity, brightness, and colorful design, featuring impressive animations and physics. Reviewers highlight the attention to detail, such as unique idle animations for each weapon, and commend the overall level design as interesting and visually appealing.
“The graphics and physics are really nice, and every weapon has its own idle animation, which is honestly impressive. Great work!”
“It features nice, clear, bright, colorful graphics, along with some nice sounds and animations.”
“3D, clear graphics, interesting level design, and cute design.”

The music in the game is widely criticized for being lackluster and forgettable, with players noting that a singular, quiet track dominates the gameplay experience. There is a notable absence of variety, as the same music plays throughout different realms and boss encounters, leading to a disappointing auditory experience.
“I don’t consider the sound effects to be that poor, but the music is incredibly lackluster, if not downright forgettable.”
“It’s disappointing there’s no change in music between realms or bosses.”
“There’s at least one very quiet song that plays, and if it’s the same as the title screen’s, you’re listening to this singular, quiet song for just about your entire gameplay duration.”

The game's humor is characterized by its playful and risqué approach to physics options, particularly focusing on hair and breast movement, which some players find amusing. However, it may not appeal to those who lack a sense of humor or are sensitive to such themes.
“I found it humorous that the physics options are for your hair, the enemies' hair, your breasts, and the enemies' breasts, though.”
“If you don't have a sense of humor, then you probably wouldn't like this.”

The game's performance is generally smooth with realistic aiming and shooting mechanics, but it suffers from poor optimization, particularly when multiple enemies spawn, leading to noticeable frame drops.
“In terms of performance, the game runs smoothly and plays very well. The aiming and shooting are realistic, with most of the guns having moderate recoil. Taking the time to make your shots count is ideal, especially if you want to conserve ammo and survive.”
“Very poor optimization; frames drop significantly when multiple enemies spawn.”

The game exhibits significant stability issues, with players reporting frustrating and occasionally game-breaking bugs that detract from the overall experience. While the visuals and endless mode are praised, the repetitive gameplay further compounds these stability concerns.
“The game is visually strong and the endless mode is enjoyable, but comes up short in terms of story, audio direction, and is further weighed down by some deeply repetitive, frustrating, and occasionally game-breaking buggy gameplay.”
