What players say
Players call this a purposeful slog that teaches pay-to-win mechanics by making you endure them firsthand. Many say it is more of an educational tool than a game, with some finding it effective while others argue the tedium overshadows the message. Opinions split on whether the deliberate frustration works or just makes the experience unplayable.
