Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
As you unlock more possible characters you clutter your loot pool a little, paired with the deeper/more challenging dungeons this can make it very difficult to create a "setup" through anything more than sheer luck.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
I was a bit curious about this game, it seemed interesting in terms of gameplay, and also kind of cute, however I was also a bit afraid that the chibi art could backfire in some cringey way as it can sometimes do.

Monetization
Players who bring up Monetization mostly praise it.
Despite not being a fan of the art style (given it looks like a mash between a mobile game and a gacha game) this game has a really solid strategy core for party building.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
To sing its praises a bit, the characters are cute, the voice acting is good, and the game IS addicting; it's probably good if you want a competent enough autobattler that makes you pay some attention to its mechanics, but it's not good if you're looking for a strong party/deckbuilder with unique runs or lots of depth.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
You don't need to trigger some crash state or anything; simply save and exit from the menu.
