## Review summary

Element is praised for its beautiful artwork, relaxing yet engaging strategic gameplay, and innovative design suitable for casual RTS players. However, multiple users report small and unreadable UI text, repetitive gameplay after early levels, insufficient clarity in instructions, challenging difficulty spikes, and screen resolution problems. The game shows strong potential with skillful developers but would benefit from improved usability, clearer tutorials, and expanded variety to enhance player retention.

### Pros

- Excellent art and design aesthetic appreciated by many users
- Fun and relaxing gameplay with a casual and enjoyable strategy experience
- Good strategic elements that gradually layer complexity with each level
- Developers show promise and the game is seen as having potential for future improvements
- Accessible for those who don't have time for traditional RTS games

### Cons

- On-screen text and UI elements are too small and need to be larger for better readability
- The game can become repetitive after initial levels, with little variety between stages
- Lack of clear instructions and tutorial guidance confuse some players about game mechanics
- Difficulty level is sometimes too high, making progression challenging beyond tutorial
- Screen and resolution issues cause content to be cut off with no apparent fix
