- “Not the best start and setup to a game; lack of story or explanation of how things work.”
- “The focus is on combat; there haven't been any puzzles or other quests in the six hours I've played so far.”
- “There isn't much of a story, although some of the better games in this genre have only had an excuse plot.”

- “I really dig the music even though it's a low-priced, low-budget game.”
- “This game is produced in Smile Game Builder, and it uses mostly stock assets and music from what I've seen of Smile Game Builder, so it feels kind of like a tech demo for the software. I do not think the developer is affiliated with the producers of that software, however.”
