The story is light-hearted, humorous, and entertaining with a quirky, original premise, featuring many fetch quests and exploration opportunities. While some players find the quest variety and repetitive fetch-quest structure limiting, others appreciate the game's charm, clever dialogue, and engaging world to explore. However, technical issues with quests and interface bugs sometimes hinder progression and immersion.
- “Great story, multiple endings and many hours of gameplay.”
- “It's filled with a brilliant story line, beautiful scenery, and ferocious combat.”
- “Not exactly (though the developer is quite involved and has been steadily working to improve the game since the initial release), but I was able to get into the real heart of the game and explore the world, and that's the strength of it - there's more to it than it might appear, and even after finishing the main story, I feel like I've hardly scratched the surface of all that's hidden in this game.”
- “Quit, loaded the single autosave, appeared at the same location (that's where the current checkpoint was), only to have my previous quest removed (I found one at my house) and the tutorial deactivated, and of course the quest window still didn't work.”
- “If it would have some story, not just quests where you have to bring some stuff to people and they pay you and then can buy more stuff to do other quests, then I would like the game.”
- “The story is very short - well, actually there is no real story (except for an intro and an ending clip) - but you have to do several quests, earn money for better equipment and skill points to beat the game.”

- “The graphics are beautiful!!”
- “The artstyle is quite unique with hand-drawn textures and what not.”

gameplay

Gameplay is generally engaging and enjoyable, featuring a straightforward side-scrolling RPG style with RPG, questing, combat, and survival elements that offer surprising depth. While some find mechanics and pacing awkward or clunky, many appreciate the fluid combat, exploration, and unique art style, making it a fun and memorable experience despite not meeting all expectations for length or complexity.
- “In gameplay, this game shines; the developers are extremely tech-savvy. Most of the mechanics seem straight out of some older AAA games, really well done. The narrator is awesome, the skippable tutorial is well executed, and the combat is fluid and cool.”
- “Gameplay is surprisingly deep, featuring RPG, questing, combat, and survival mechanics.”
- “I love this game; the humor is great, and the gameplay is actually quite addictive and fun considering its simple overall idea. At times you have to explore for yourself, which definitely ticks the adventure feel box.”
- “No, it most definitely does not provide 30+ hours of gameplay like the store page suggests, and the pacing is a bit all over the place, but I still think it's worth your time.”
- “For full disclosure, I initially wrote a negative review after about two hours of playing - the interfaces were clumsy (mostly the quest system), combat was awkward (lots of enemies are at your feet, and the general weapon swing barely gets there), and the combination of hunger and stamina made even basic gameplay slow and unappealing (both become a non-factor as you level up, but I still don't really see why they need to exist in the first place).”
- “To attempt to sum it up briefly, it's a side-scrolling adventure/RPG (Metroidvania?) with lots of quests, lots of secrets, a unique art style, and some awkward mechanics.”

grinding

- “I found the game nearly mind-numbingly boring and got bored after not long (the 7.6 hours are from card farming).”
- “I love quests, don't get me wrong, I actually love the grindy ones where you just collect a few things and return, but I feel like I got bombarded with quests immediately, which may overwhelm some players.”
- “The necessity to store items in chests scattered around the world can become tedious.”
stability

The game's stability is inconsistent, with frequent bugs and glitches, including game-breaking issues that often require submitting save files for fixes. Despite long-term updates, basic functionality remains problematic, and even simple actions like opening the inventory can cause freezes. However, some users accept these issues as typical for early access and still find the game enjoyable.
- “Buggy trash with missing basic functionality even after 8 years and many updates, but they're getting ready to sell more of it as paid DLC.”
- “Whereas game breaking glitches/bugs usually end in a 'upload your save file to us and we'll try and fix it' along with an entire guide on how to do it.”
- “Not only that but the game freezes for simple stuff like opening your inventory.”
