The gameplay is engaging and addictive, particularly for fans of mechanical tinkering, with a progression system reminiscent of "brotato." While the mechanics may not be immediately intuitive for seasoned players of the genre, the simplicity can lead to rapid overpowering, creating a fun yet potentially unbalanced experience. The overall aesthetic is charming, with a whimsical take on destruction.
- “Gameplay and progression are very brotato-esque, but the machine creation process is beyond addicting.”
- “Nice game, fun if you like mechanical things and like to tinker around!”
- “The gameplay is simple (maybe a bit too simple, it seemed like we got overpowered very quickly) and, although the style appears to be big spinning saw blades of death, it's just cute and everything goes *poof* when it dies.”
- “Not all game mechanics and strategies can be intuited by an experienced lover of survivor-likes, so like many indie games that are actually original and creative, it's so good at what it does that it earns a demerit point for being an honest-to-god real video game.”
- “The gameplay is simple (maybe a bit too simple; it seemed like we got overpowered very quickly), and although the style appears to be big spinning saw blades of death, it's just cute and everything goes *poof* when it dies.”

The game is noted for its exceptionally low replayability, which stands out even among roguelites, leading some players to feel that its lack of replay value undermines its worth.
- “This game shines in being one of the least replayable roguelites I've ever seen, which is the exception to my rule that if a roguelite is not replayable, it is essentially a scam to steal your money.”
