The game's graphics receive mixed feedback, with many praising its unique, dark medieval fantasy art style and character design, while others criticize low-quality visuals and performance issues like lag and crashes even on low settings.

- “Amazing graphics and tons of loot.”
- “Great game with astonishing graphics and character design and fast pace gameplay.”
- “Very nice game, doesn't get boring, great graphics, well done guys.”
- “Graphics are just atrocious, but there are gameplay elements (specifically the dungeon map aspect) that are unique and interesting and bode well for the future of the game.”
- “I have graphics set to the lowest settings and still crashes and overheats.”
- “Over 2 GB of data (and still downloading additional data every time I log in) for a game with potato graphics that my 5-year-old nephew could make better... seriously devs?!”

The gameplay is generally praised for its engaging rogue-like elements, unique dungeon progression, and solid character/team building mechanics, offering a fresh and entertaining experience compared to typical idle RPGs. However, some users criticize the reliance on duplicate characters to level up, energy limitations, occasional lag or bugs, and feel the gameplay can be repetitive or lack depth. Overall, it blends smooth, fun mechanics with distinctive features, though certain aspects may be divisive.
- “You have a bit of rogue-like elements with the gameplay as each mission you progress through a dungeon, gaining buffs and collecting loot.”
- “One of very few roguelite with clear vision of multiple character-team build, fair treatment unit balancing and visual pleaser, solid gameplay which we have never seen on mobile yet, and lastly attainable/farmable premium currency simply by running dungeon.”
- “Very smooth mechanics and the gameplay is very fun.”
- “Must have duplicate characters to level up is such a bad mechanic.”
- “Horrible, it's standard idle battler brainless gameplay.”
- “One of the thousands of copycat games with little to no actual gameplay, chibi ugly characters and more no-brainer mechanics.”

The story features unique and interesting characters with humor and solid art, maintaining player engagement despite some localization flaws and a sudden start in battle without much background. Progression can become challenging or frustrating due to gameplay and quest design, with certain missions requiring payment or level thresholds. Overall, the story is engaging but secondary to the game's broader idle and rogue-like elements.
- “The characters are unique and fun, and the story keeps my attention.”
- “Localization isn't perfect, but the storyline is pretty good and the game has humor.”
- “The art is amazing with story elements that seem to be missing in other idle fighting games.”
- “Sadly, they don't expand more on the background story. From the start, we're suddenly transported into battle without much explanation for why or how we came to be there.”
- “To give a reason why I stopped playing: I pulled some infinite falleners but I can't upgrade them past level 40 because I need multiple copies of them, and I can't play story mode because level 40 is too low and I can't progress.”
- “You can't see anything; you're blindly clicking on the screen in hopes that maybe you'll hit the right spot in order to complete missions.”

Monetization is criticized for intrusive, excessive, and lengthy ads that disrupt gameplay and often fail to provide rewards, despite in-app purchases being reasonably priced and offering good value. Players feel pressured to spend or watch ads frequently due to energy restrictions, detracting from the overall experience.
- “The in-app purchases are not expensive, and you get decent value from them.”
- “Graphics, gameplay, rewards, no ads, in-game purchases not necessary to advance.”
- “You chose the most intrusive, longest and annoying ads for your otherwise good game.”
- “Most times watching doesn't even give rewards because the ads are that long and disruptive.”
- “You don't even play the game, it just plays then you quickly run out of energy and they want money and ads to get it.”

stability

The game’s stability is problematic, with frequent freezing, bugs related to crowded maps, and audio glitches causing crashes and interruptions. Players often need to restart to continue, significantly impacting gameplay experience.
- “The newest update made us able to see players on the map, but it caused the map to be crowded. I can't click on a dungeon because players overlap it, causing bugs. Now I have to restart every time I enter a dungeon and start an encounter because it freezes showing players standing there.”
- “Very buggy, it keeps freezing and kicking me out of the game.”
- “The audio glitches and crackles very badly; if it's fixed, I'll give a higher rating.”
grinding

The game features a grind-heavy progression that can feel tedious, especially for free-to-play players. However, its manager system allows for passive grinding while AFK, helping to alleviate some of the time investment.
- “It's really grindy at times and it's not as free-to-play friendly as I would like it to be.”
- “The manager just tells the characters or teams to go grinding, level up, get stronger, and accomplish the missions to gain rewards while I'm AFK working in the real world.”
- “It gets very tedious.”
humor
2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

The game features a humorous storyline that adds charm despite imperfect localization, with some players feeling the generous gacha mechanics serve as a playful joke or satire on typical gacha games.
- “Localization isn't perfect, but the storyline is pretty good and the game has humor.”
- “This gacha is so generous it almost feels like a plot, a joke, or maybe the developers laughing at everything a gacha game usually is.”
