Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Even making different characters with different impacts on gameplay (like a character that enhances DOT but nerfs direct damage) for me to play would spice it up, or have more champions than just Necromancer or Fisherman.

The game offers some nice graphics and a nice aesthetic, although some ugly glitches here and there, it is pleasant all the same

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The sound design, like Dungeon Warfare 2, can start to get funny as things really ramp up, but it seems slightly worse here when trap builds really start to scale and get big.

I am having a ton of fun and it runs great on steam deck, just some smaller font issues on the cards.
