- The fight scenes are enjoyable and challenging, particularly the final confrontation, which adds excitement to the gameplay.
- Character customization options, such as choosing gender and name, provide a personal touch to the player's experience.
- The game is relatively short, with a lack of depth in the story and character development, leaving players wanting more.
- There is no save system, which can be frustrating as players must restart from the beginning if they die late in the game.
- The ending feels abrupt and unsatisfying, with many plot threads left unresolved, making it clear that the game is intended to be part of a series without a follow-up available.

The story revolves around a personal quest to uncover the fate of the protagonist's missing parents, featuring a mix of character development and fast-paced missions. While it introduces intriguing plot dynamics and offers choices regarding allegiances, many players feel the narrative concludes abruptly and lacks satisfying pay-off, leaving them wanting more. Overall, the story is seen as relatively short but engaging, with potential for further exploration in a sequel.
“Have a personal quest to find out what happened to your missing parents.”
“A relatively short story, but I found it satisfying.”
“The characters were decently developed, and the story was fast-paced.”
“There's no second game in the series released as of yet, so you get through the plot only for it to end abruptly, with no payoff.”
“While the story promises to go in a number of interesting directions with the player choosing between multiple allegiances, there is little in the way of payoff.”
“There's a romance option that asks how you feel about a character you literally know nothing about and haven't met in the story yet.”
