Overall, while the graphics and gameplay are praised, the story's execution varies significantly, leading to a range of player experiences from enjoyment to frustration.

    • “I am really enjoying this game so far; I downloaded it on Mistplay and usually delete games after a few days, but I love the story and the characters. It's so easy to obtain energy, and it isn't as expensive as other games, which makes it more immersive and allows you to make more purchases.”
    • “The story is fun and cheesy, and I've been having fun following it.”
    • “I love the story plot; it's adorable and great.”
    • “The storyline is pretty poorly written, bad grammar but more importantly some definite themes that were quite sexist and LGBTQIA+ unfriendly in a deceptively light and jokey way (subversive).”

  • monetization
    72 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, players appreciate the monetization model of the game, highlighting the absence of intrusive ads and the option to watch ads voluntarily for rewards.

    • “Love how there's no ads.”
    • “Also, the ads on it are over a minute long.”

    • “This game is a total waste of time; no matter what I do, it freezes every time I go to do something. Now since I bought a package from the game, I can't even get the game to load. Don't waste your time; you will not get anywhere.”
