The game employs significant dopamine manipulation tactics, such as variable rewards from upgrades and blueprints, and an 'endless gameplay' design that lacks natural stopping points, making it difficult to disengage. High monetization pressure is present through 'pay-to-win' mechanics with special cards and upgrades. The competitive online leaderboards and guild system can foster social comparison and competitive toxicity, potentially impacting a player's self-worth.
