Overall, players find that grinding in the game is minimal, especially on harder difficulties, as strategic upgrades and farming can significantly ease progression. While some players may engage in grinding for achievements or to maximize stats, the process often involves repetitively replaying earlier levels for resources rather than extensive grinding.
- “Even on hard, it's not that difficult with almost no grinding as long as you know what you are doing and purchase the best upgrades.”
- “If achievement grinding is your thing, then you can blast through in an hour or so with some farming to max stats and a small amount of grind to gain a few of the cumulative achievements or waiting for decent conditions to get the 'match 7'.”
- “The upgrade system is just a process of tediously replaying lower levels and farming the cash up front, then strolling through the rest of the levels.”
- “You can stay on one character and 'train', effectively farming more gold before proceeding and growing stronger.”
