The game's story is generally well-received, with many players finding it engaging and relatable, particularly in its exploration of teenage life and romance. However, the key system, which restricts access to the story by requiring long waits for new keys, frustrates users and detracts from the overall experience. While the narrative has potential, players express a strong desire for longer chapters and more frequent key availability to fully enjoy the unfolding plot.

The monetization strategy of the game has received significant criticism, primarily due to the excessive number of ads and the long wait times for obtaining keys needed to progress. Many players express frustration over the limited opportunities to watch ads for keys, which disrupts gameplay and leads to a feeling of being forced into in-app purchases. While some users appreciate the game itself, the monetization model detracts from the overall experience, with calls for a reduction in ads and shorter key wait times.
“It is a fun game, but you have to buy keys. At first, there were ads, but now there are no ads, so the flow of the game gets disturbed!”
“You can play every single page (1 key) in every 11 hours unless you buy 5 keys. It takes just 1 second to complete one page. A good business idea: call it free and charge more for in-app purchases to progress the story.”
“If I want more keys by watching an ad, that option is there, but I click the ad option several times but no ads, no keys. Please fix this problem, then I can give it 5 stars.”
“This game makes people have to watch ads to play the next chapter in the game, and once there are no more ads to watch, you have to wait until the next day. This happens if you don't pay for a pack, which is horrible for people who can't pay for the game.”
“Looks like a cute app, but the amount of ads versus the amount of content is ridiculous. This app gives you more ads than content, only to read a mediocre story.”
“You can play every single page (1 key) in every 11 hours unless you buy 5 keys. It takes just 1 second to complete one page. It's a good business idea to call it free and charge more for in-app purchases to progress the story.”
