Engaging mystery plot with multiple routes and endings that reveal new perspectives about characters and story.
Beautiful and unique art style with well-drawn character sprites, detailed backgrounds, and impressive CGs, some featuring subtle animation effects.
Strong main character development and intriguing companions, with a captivating narrative blending mysticism, horror, and romance.

The game is quite short and leaves many plot points and characters underdeveloped, creating a desire for more world-building and lore depth.
Romance elements feel underwhelming and unbalanced, with limited acknowledgement outside of one route and inconsistent romantic content between characters.
Occasional inconsistencies and minor errors in writing and translation, including some odd dialogue choices and conflicting details about setting and terminology.

The story offers a mystical and occult-themed narrative with branching paths that heavily impact the outcome, blending mystery with a prominent romance subplot. While the plot is captivating and enriched by well-developed characters and unique lore, its short length can leave some mysteries and character arcs feeling incomplete without exploring multiple endings. Overall, the story is engaging but leaves players wanting more depth and resolution.
- “Your boss has requested you get her a lipstick that matches the colour of the beads included with her letter, and from here you can start to split into different paths, which will have a significant impact on the later story.”
- “Caball is a short, yet captivating indie visual novel with a fascinating plot revolving around demons and rituals.”
- “Each character adds depth to the story, especially more enigmatic characters like Caball and Gaspar.”
- “It feels like the player does not get a full picture of some of the plot points unless they play all the endings.”
- “Or give me an after story for Gaspar.”
- “Branch story with multiple situations that have partly yuri.”
