- There are no forced ads, allowing for a more enjoyable gameplay experience.
- After the initial stages, the game quickly devolves into a generic base-building and pay-to-win model, losing its unique charm.
- The tutorial is excessively long and hand-holding, detracting from the overall experience.
- Many players feel misled by the game's marketing, as it does not deliver the expected Spore-like gameplay beyond the first few minutes.

The gameplay starts strong with an engaging evolution phase reminiscent of "Spore," but quickly devolves into a generic mobile city-building experience that disappoints many players. Users express frustration over the shift from enjoyable aquatic mechanics to slow and tedious land-based gameplay, feeling that the game loses its initial charm and originality. Overall, the consensus is that the game would have benefited from maintaining the engaging elements of its early stages rather than transitioning to a more conventional strategy format.
“I'm astonished how they show you different styles of gameplay just to ultimately turn into a generic pay-to-win city builder.”
“I liked that intro evolution gameplay better than what happens after; it's a clone. Developers should consider making that beginning part its own game.”
“If only it had held onto the genre of the first three minutes of gameplay.”
“Gameplay starts like one thing, and quickly turns into a generic mobile base building kind of game.”
“Could have been a really cool game if they stuck with the first 10 minutes of gameplay before turning it into a town builder.”
“After the initial stage (which, in all honesty, was well made and just as fun as the same stage in Spore), the game quickly devolves into your typical online multiplayer strategy game with extremely slow and boring combat and city building mechanics.”

Overall, the graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some praising the art style and visual effects as impressive and comparable to titles like Spore, while others criticize the game's performance demands on mobile devices.

“It's had amazing graphics and the start is absolutely amazing.”
“It's Spore but a standard base builder, the graphics are surprisingly good.”
“Great game, love the graphics.”
“Giving it 2 stars because of the art style.”
“What a waste of graphical power of today's devices.”
“You need an amazing performance mobile with a high fps to play it even if you make the graphics low; it doesn't matter.”

The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the absence of ads and forced payments, while others criticize it for being riddled with microtransactions and perceived pay-to-win elements. Many users express frustration over the game's reliance on in-app purchases, likening it to a cash grab, while a few acknowledge the need for developers to generate revenue. Overall, the game's monetization approach seems to be a contentious point among players.
“There's no ads since writing this, and they are not currently begging for money. It seems a bit faster-paced compared to other base builders.”
“It reminds me of Spore and is a great version of it. So far, no ads at all, but there will probably be some in there eventually, and I understand that they have to make money too.”
“Also, no ads.”
“Just make the whole game like the first part of the game instead of like a typical cash grab.”
“Outright stealing of a whole chapter from Spore, stupid free-to-play microtransactions, and finally: your creature has to be an ugly piece of meat while you're being shown some beautifully designed creatures you can't make inside the game.”
“Seems pay-to-win - you are bombarded with offers from every angle - I won't spend money on another cash grab mobile game.”
