  • story182 mentions

    The game's story is generally perceived as short, simplistic, and often nonsensical, with many reviewers noting its lack of depth and coherence. While some players appreciate the humor and charm of the dialogue and character interactions, others find the plot forgettable and the overall narrative lacking in engagement. Fans of the Orange Juice series may enjoy the quirky, self-aware storytelling, but newcomers might struggle to find a compelling reason to invest in the story.

    • “The story sees the casts of various orange juice games crossing over as worlds collide.”
    • “The story is light-hearted and somewhat similar to the stories you might find in most bullet hell games in that most of the time you fight with the people you meet but then you become friends.”
    • “The story is funny with funny lines.”
    • “This game has no story.”
    • “Lots of unexplained mechanics, vague and samey dialogue, boring combat, too many indistinct characters, and a story that has no hook nor direction.”
    • “The story is literally made up as it goes along in a very cutesy 4th wall breaking way that soon overstays its welcome.”
  • gameplay107 mentions

    The gameplay has drawn mixed reviews, with some players enjoying its Pokémon-inspired mechanics and colorful visuals, while others criticize it for being overly simplistic, repetitive, and grind-heavy. Many find the combat system reminiscent of rock-paper-scissors, which can be engaging but lacks depth, leading to a linear and uninspired experience. Overall, while there are interesting mechanics and humor, the gameplay often feels unbalanced and frustrating, particularly due to its reliance on grinding and vague mechanics.

    • “With colorful visuals, humorous dialogue, and strategic gameplay, it offers a unique and enjoyable experience.”
    • “The gameplay is simple to understand but challenging to master, making it a great pick-up-and-play title.”
    • “The gameplay works in a rock/paper/scissors fashion, but it also has another rock/paper/scissors mechanic within this that people don't seem to get.”
    • “Unfortunately, it sucks. The gameplay is extremely basic and repetitive, and the character interactions and humor are really boring.”
    • “Sadly, the gameplay is very linear, not at all tactical, and relies mostly on you either getting lucky with the gacha system or grinding forever.”
    • “The gameplay is uninspired and the graphics are awful, with nothing but JPEGs and crude animations.”
  • grinding85 mentions

    The reviews overwhelmingly describe the grinding aspect of the game as tedious and excessive, often requiring players to repeat battles for experience points and character leveling, particularly in the late game. Many players found the grinding to be a significant detractor from the overall enjoyment, with some noting that it felt unbalanced and luck-dependent, leading to frustration during boss encounters. While some appreciated the quick leveling mechanics, the general consensus is that the grinding is a major hurdle that detracts from the game's potential fun and engagement.

    • “A lot of grinding is required.”
    • “You'll need a second life for grinding.”

    • “Sadly, the gameplay is very linear, not at all tactical and relies mostly on you either getting lucky with the gacha system or grinding forever.”
    • “The game's difficulty curve does not offer it any favors either as all new characters you obtain come at level 1 and will require grinding up to level to do content, after you've already done the grind to get the money to even pull them off of mixdus.”
  • humor68 mentions

    The humor in the game is generally well-received, with many players appreciating its cute and quirky dialogue, silly jokes, and self-aware writing that often breaks the fourth wall. While some found the humor to be hit-or-miss, particularly for those unfamiliar with the characters, the overall lighthearted tone and funny interactions contribute to an enjoyable experience. However, a few reviews noted that the humor could not fully compensate for the game's repetitive gameplay and lack of depth.

    • “The game's vibrant visuals, lighthearted humor, and variety of game modes make it engaging and addictive.”

    • “The humor falls flat and feels forced throughout the game.”

Many players appreciate the charm of the soundtrack, particularly the battle themes, but find that the limited variety leads to fatigue over time. Overall, while the music fits the game's aesthetic, its execution leaves room for improvement.

    • “Not a soul asked for the soundtrack to be this good, and yet here we are.”
    • “The soundtrack is composed entirely of free public-domain music, but is really good, despite that.”
    • “The aesthetic for this game in a lot of areas is to go for a 'retraux' feel, and the music is the most true to that aesthetic.”
    • “The music doesn't fit the visual tone of the game at all.”
    • “You've got music that ends in silence and then starts from the beginning again instead of looping fluidly, and whenever a new soundtrack plays, everything has to freeze for a sec before you can do anything.”
    • “This game feels like it's thrown together from previously used assets with repetitive and boring music.”
  • graphics52 mentions

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some praising the cute, retro-inspired art style and vibrant colors that evoke nostalgia for classic RPGs, while others criticize the low-resolution backgrounds and inconsistent quality of character designs.

    • “Artwork is fantastic!”
    • “The graphics are horrible - not only the low-res backgrounds, but also a pretty unreadable menu with artifacts.”
    • “The graphics are awful, by the way, but since you spend more time reading than anything else, it doesn't matter that much.”
    • “The graphics are kind of bad; you either decide to use all your game with pixelated graphics or all the game with properly drawn graphics. This game has both, the characters look not pixelated and this makes the backgrounds look ugly.”
  • replayability12 mentions

    Overall, the game's replayability is mixed; while some players appreciate the variety of characters and multiplayer options that enhance replay value, many criticize the short story mode and lack of post-game content, resulting in limited replayability for solo play.

    • “The story may not be very long, but the game has incredible replayability due to its vast amount of player characters, not to mention the online multiplayer extending the amount of time you'll play the game.”
    • “It has some replayability with multiplayer, and a final challenge of facing the last boss again but harder.”
    • “The main game has over 50 character cards, so it's fair to say that there's a lot of choice, and therefore replayability value.”
    • “200% Mixed Juice is a sub-par comedy RPG that is quite short and has almost no replay value.”
    • “Aside from those 10 hours (give or take), you'll find low replayability in this title.”
    • “And there's no post-game content or new game+, leaving the game with very little replay value.”
  • character development4 mentions

    Character development in the game is characterized by a lighthearted and whimsical approach, with players gaining a basic understanding of each character's personality through simple yet charming designs.

    • “Character development: The player learns about every character in little depth, but the player can understand the personality of each character.”
    • “Its character designs, while cute, look as though they were crudely drawn. The UI is reminiscent of Dragon Quest in its black-and-white simplicity, and the music isn't grandiose or orchestrated like the classic NES Square JRPGs. However, anyone who's a fan of Orange Juice's games knows that this is often the point, but there's a lack of depth in character development.”
    • “It's the type of game that has a very silly, innocent, childish sense of humor, and while the whimsical music and cute character designs reflect this, the character development feels superficial.”

    The monetization strategy is criticized as a lazy cash grab, with gameplay elements like the final boss relying heavily on RNG, making it frustratingly difficult to succeed even for maxed-out players.

    • “This feels like a lazy cash grab, and the final boss relies on RNG to determine if you win or not, as they have a 75% chance to dodge your attacks even when you're maxed out.”
    • “The monetization system is frustratingly aggressive, making it nearly impossible to progress without spending real money.”
    • “I can't believe how much they expect players to pay for basic content; it feels like they designed the game solely to extract money from us.”
