The reviews highlight a mixed reception for the game's story, with some praising its compelling narrative and choices, while others criticize its linearity and lack of depth. Notably, the story is described as decent but ultimately disappointing for those seeking a rich narrative experience, with some characters lacking development. Overall, the plot is seen as average, featuring elements like a murder mystery, but the execution leaves much to be desired.
- “However, while army gals had a compelling and fleshed out story, with plenty of choices and a dozen or so, devil in the details steals its basic premise from highschool dxd, while providing a comparatively linear experience and only 5 endings.”
- “The story was a nice read and I would suggest reading it.”
- “With a murder mystery and kidnapping and a lot of plot and choices that you can do correctly from clues in the game and common sense.”
- “There's no voice acting, and the story is both bad and thankfully short.”
- “That said, the characters have little to no story and are quite unremarkable.”
- “So in conclusion, the plot is okay—the writing is okay—the art is acceptable—but the choices are not acceptable to me.”

- “This has the exact same art style as Army Gals, which is a great thing because I loved the art style in Army Gals and I love the art style in this.”
- “Its okay-ish, the art style is okay for the most part but it's short and kind of boring to get through.”
- “Artwork was moderate.”
