Interesting concept with potential, reminiscent of Harry Potter.
Art and music are well done, adding to the overall experience.
Provides unintentional comedy through hilariously bad voice acting.

Poor translation and voice acting detract from gameplay experience.
Extremely short with minimal content, completing it in under 30 minutes.
Game feels more like a tech demo rather than a fully developed title.
