The game features engaging storytelling and rich lore that players can uncover through interactions with NPCs and mission progression. However, the mission progression itself is criticized for being lackluster and heavily reliant on RNG, which detracts from the overall narrative experience. Additionally, the story includes intriguing meta commentary that adds depth to the gameplay.
“There is some really good storytelling and lore you can figure out as you progress through the stages and talk to the many NPCs.”
“Interesting story with some meta commentary sprinkled in.”

The grinding aspect of the game is heavily criticized, with players noting that progression is tedious and reliant on RNG, leading to a repetitive and unfun experience. Players often feel forced to choose between different grinding paths, which contributes to the overall frustration with the game's design.
“The progression is extremely grindy; you basically have to choose between going to a level that gives you two points for meta progression or going to a level for tower upgrades so you can maybe get more levels in.”
“It's full of baffling design choices; it's horribly grindy, success mostly depends on RNG, and it just gets pretty repetitive and boring.”
“So, beware that this is purely RNG, no strategy involved, and is extremely tedious, grindy, and unfun.”

“Gameplay is slow, repetitive, and leaves you almost completely at the mercy of RNG.”
