The gameplay is praised for its originality and addictive mechanics, complemented by great art. However, the AI shows reluctance in using overcharge moves and lacks a bluff mechanic, which can make it predictable and less challenging after repeated play. Some balance issues, such as the final card play and game-saving mechanics, are also noted.
“The art is great and the mechanics I hadn't seen before; I found it very original.”
“Over a few hours of gameplay, the AI diver seems to be very reluctant to play overcharges, and I'm guessing they mainly overcharge when a normal 2-3 advance is not available.”
“Nice arts and addictive gameplay.”
“Over a few hours of gameplay, the AI diver seems to be very reluctant to play overcharges, and it mainly overcharges when a normal 2-3 advance is not available.”
“If the diver is able to play the final card, the squid should not get a guess-until-you-lose mechanic to save the game.”
“Bots lack a bluff mechanic and become weak after a few tries.”
