The story is brief, lasting around 15 minutes, and lacks depth, with unresolved elements that detract from its engagement. While it features a setting involving a brother and sister moving to a palace to become servants, the narrative is overshadowed by minigame mechanics, making it feel more like a game with a story rather than a true visual novel. Overall, it offers a short experience that may appeal to those interested in the 1770s palace theme but leaves much to be desired in terms of storytelling.

- “The setting, story, and minigames feel realistic to the time period.”

- “The story fell apart for me because of the resolution it had.”
- “Given the story isn't engaging or long enough to just let it speak for itself.”
- “Although, it was a shame that there were not many storylines to explore, and it focused more on trying to solve a mystery in the game.”
