What players say

Players praise the monster reincarnation system as a unique take on isekai, but many cite game-breaking bugs, a punishing hunger grind, and poor English localization as dealbreakers. Opinions are split: some see a diamond in the rough with Dark Souls-like difficulty, while others dismiss it as a low-effort RPG Maker flip.
