Players find the process of unlocking new spells to be quite grindy and tedious, particularly due to the inconsistent and laborious nature of earning coins required for purchases. While the grind is manageable, it can detract from the overall experience, though the spells themselves are generally balanced and allow for play style preference.
- “Unlocking new spells is pretty grindy, which is a pain, but it's still doable. Aside from one or two of them, they tend to be mostly balanced, so it's for the most part play style preference which ones you use.”
- “Getting coins is so tedious and inconsistent, and you have to have a lot of them to buy any spell.”
