Design risks
| R1 | Compulsion-loop pressure | 0.53 | |
| R2 | Monetization | 0.42 | |
| R3 | Social risk | 0.44 | |
The game's MMORPG nature, combined with microtransactions and a focus on progression, presents risks of compulsion-loop design through variable rewards and an infinite play loop. Social comparison and potential competitive toxicity in PvP areas are also present. The lack of natural stopping points and potential penalties for breaks could encourage extended play sessions.

- DSA:What Ludograph checks: whether the game's design gives minors the transparency the EU Digital Services Act expects: plain terms, honest defaults, and clear reporting routes.: Estimated from review data. Likely violations: virtual currency that obscures real-money prices.
- GDPR-K:What Ludograph checks: whether age assurance and consent flows are designed for under-16s, in the spirit of GDPR Article 8.
- ODDS:What Ludograph checks: whether paid random-reward drop rates are disclosed, as required in China, Japan and South Korea.: Estimated from review data. No paid random-reward mechanics found, so drop-rate disclosure requirements do not apply.
These reflect Ludograph's assessment of the game's design practices against each framework's criteria, not a legal compliance determination.
