The game offers a unique blend of RTS and MOBA gameplay, making it enjoyable for fans of both genres.
Matches are quick, averaging around 5-10 minutes, which is perfect for players looking for fast-paced action.
The game has a solid foundation with fun mechanics, such as transforming minions and strategic combat, and runs smoothly without major bugs.

The player base is currently very low, leading to a reliance on AI opponents rather than real players.
There are only six playable heroes at launch, which feels insufficient for a game of this type.
The graphics and overall presentation could be improved, as they currently leave much to be desired.

The game's story aspect is currently underdeveloped, with players expressing a desire for a more engaging single-player campaign that could enhance the experience. While there is potential for a narrative-driven mode, the lack of player base and content limits the overall storytelling experience.
- “This game has a lot of potential as a single-player experience with a compelling story behind it, featuring a campaign where players can unlock certain items after completing levels.”
- “The narrative elements in the game are engaging and add depth to the overall experience, making each encounter feel meaningful.”
- “I appreciate how the story unfolds throughout the gameplay, providing context and motivation for the player's actions.”
- “At this moment, there is not enough of a player base, so most of my experience comes from fighting against AI. To be honest, this game has a lot of potential as a single-player game with a bit of a story behind it, perhaps a campaign where you can unlock certain items after finishing one level after another. Sadly, this game lacks both player numbers and a single-player mode.”
