The gameplay is described as addictive but lacking in polish and depth, leading to potential boredom after a few sessions. While the aesthetic is satisfactory, it lacks a compelling loop to encourage repeated play. In contrast, Holocure offers extensive content and a large character roster, providing long-term engagement, especially as a free game.
- “Holocure also has tons more content with a massive character roster and will continue to reward your gameplay for hundreds of hours, and it's free.”
- “The aesthetic and gameplay is perfectly fine but without a loop to encourage me to play and play again, after a few runs you'll be bored.”
- “It’s addictive, but lacks polish and a mechanical depth I’ve come to expect in modern games, even if they’re emulating the feel of arcade machines.”
- “Large explosions and projectiles are fancy, but they are a hindrance from the gameplay perspective.”
