The story in the game has been widely criticized for its lack of originality and engaging content, often described as a typical gacha narrative filled with clichés. Players find the pacing frustrating, with lengthy tutorials and repetitive missions that detract from the overall experience. While there is potential in the character designs and mechanics, the execution feels rushed and lacking in depth, leading to a soulless presentation that many hope will improve in future updates.
“I hope they improve because the character designs are good, the story has potential, and the mechanics can be built upon in many ways.”
“The storyline is about what every single gacha game ever does, with their protagonist having a mysterious power or past that allows them to tap into their roster's hidden powers.”
“Terrible storyline that you will have to go through multiple times, even ignoring the bug where you have to do story sections twice in a row.”
“The storyline is about what every single gacha game ever does with their protagonist having a mysterious power/past that allows them to tap into their roster's hidden powers, and then it's just grind your stats.”
“The content of the story itself is beyond criticism—it's just too frustrating to even comment on.”

Overall, the graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some praising the anime style and lighting, while others criticize them as outdated and blurry, resembling mid-tier mobile games. Many users note that the character modeling is particularly lacking, and the overall visual quality does not meet expectations, especially when compared to other titles in the genre. Despite being a free game, the graphics are seen as subpar, with significant room for improvement.
“Graphics-wise, this game looks great.”
“I think the hate on the graphics is ridiculous; it looks good with the lighting and anime graphics.”
“The graphics aren't that bad for a mobile game; however, it looks pretty blurry, as if it was upscaled from the mobile default resolution.”
“Graphics look like your mid-tier mobile games, like Aether Gazer and maybe a little worse than Snow Break.”
“Graphics look outdated, with a toy-like feel throughout.”
“Graphic is poor; there's no difference for most people because the game can only run at 1080p, and it looked poorly even on the highest resolution setting.”

The gameplay is a standard 3rd person hack and slash/shooter experience that suffers from repetitive mechanics and slow pacing, with players often resorting to spamming basic attacks to progress. The tutorial is poorly designed, providing minimal guidance before overwhelming players with cutscenes, and lengthy loading times detract from the overall experience. While the character designs and story show promise, the gameplay loop feels sluggish and could benefit from significant improvements.
“The gameplay loop feels extremely slow, which is typical in a rogue-like exploration, but the loading screens and stiff combat controls, along with some moves not being introduced in the tutorial stages, left me confused on how to replicate attacks.”
“I hope they improve because the character designs are good, the story has potential, and the mechanics can be built upon in many ways.”
“- unique gameplay”

“The tutorial and combat mechanics are a mess; you can just spam basic attacks to win.”

Character development in the game is noted for its appealing female character designs, which stand out positively, while the male protagonist is criticized for looking out of place. Despite the potential in the story and mechanics, the overall character development feels limited, with some users expressing hope for future improvements.
“I hope they improve because the character designs are good, the story has potential, and the mechanics can be built upon in many ways.”
“On the character designs, I love them.”
“The only good part of this game is the female character designs; the male protagonist looks really out of place compared to the other characters.”
“Even if they spend the next 6 months fixing the problems, all that will be left is a mediocre gacha game with lewd character designs.”
