The game features cute art and character designs, particularly the Chibi Doll Forms.
Gameplay is fun and unique, offering a satisfying loop of strategy and resource management.
The multiplayer aspect can be enjoyable, especially when playing with friends.

The single player mode is very short and lacks depth, making it feel underwhelming.
The multiplayer requires specific players to join, as there is no random matchmaking, which limits accessibility.
The tutorial is confusing and does not adequately explain game mechanics, making it difficult for new players to understand.
