The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the abundance of ads and the difficulty in earning rubies. While some appreciate the option to watch ads for hints and rubies, they often find the rewards insufficient compared to the high costs of in-game purchases, leading to a "pay-to-win" feel. Overall, players suggest that the game could benefit from more balanced rewards for watching ads and additional ways to earn rubies without excessive grinding or spending real money.
“Really liked how they gave the option to watch an ad to borrow items that contribute to the plot, as many other games really force you to make in-app purchases to even proceed decently, so that was refreshing!”
“You can play the game without needing to pay for anything, but there are in-app purchases to help if you want to speed things up.”
“This game is amazing, there are no ads, unless you watch an ad to gain more gems, and when you first open the app, it shows you a trailer.”
“Like a lot of people love the plot and the art, however I am actually disappointed; way too many ads, rubies are hard to get and overall, earning anything or having a good ending for free is impossible.”
“I wouldn't recommend this game if you want a fulfilling ending without having to pay or watch tons of ads...”
“The game is impossible to enjoy with the constant ads interrupting and you really can't get anywhere with the story because everything costs a ridiculous amount of gems that you would have to pay for with your own money because you can't earn more than a few by watching a limited number of ads when all of the major choices require you to pay for them.”

“Well, it really is a good game, because it has a lot of potential. I love character design and the story which can give chills sometimes, but what annoys me the most is that if you want to do something in this game you have to buy rubies... and could someone tell me, is there any way to obtain tickets without paying real money?”

The game's stability has received mixed feedback, with many users reporting frequent glitches and freezes, particularly when interacting with ads or transitioning between episodes.

“Whenever I'm done with an episode, an ad appears (I'm perfectly fine with the ads), but whenever I exit out of the ad, it freezes and won't let me exit where the end of the episode left off. Whenever I try, it says to 'pick a partner.' When this happens, I always have to exit the app.”
“Every time I choose an option or an ad for more rubies, the game freezes and I have to restart the whole episode, all the way back to the first episode.”
“I love the story, the graphics, and the gameplay, but I have to leave two stars out because of the time it glitches and doesn't give you the next episode or doesn't give you things for characters.”

The grinding aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players finding it tedious and time-consuming, especially when trying to unlock different endings or acquire necessary items without spending money.

Overall, while the game offers a compelling story, the grinding required to fully enjoy it can detract from the overall enjoyment.
“You have to play through the story multiple times to get the different endings, but it's short enough that it's not too tedious doing so.”
“I adore the art, but I cannot spend my time grinding just to get even one good ending.”
“Sadly, it's locked behind payment or spending an excessive amount of time grinding gems by using other games.”
“The amount of rubies needed for good endings is quite tedious as it leads to grinding the story for puzzle pieces, doing Tapjoy offers, or waiting each day just to get 10 rubies.”
