The graphics in the game are widely praised for their stunning quality, often described as console-level or even better than many PC games. Players appreciate the detailed character customization and vibrant environments, although some express frustration over the game's high storage requirements and performance issues on lower-end devices. While the visuals are a highlight, there are mixed feelings about the gameplay and storyline, with some players finding it repetitive or lacking depth.
“The graphics are stunning and the character customization is really detailed and overall it's a visually stunning game.”
“The graphics are absolutely amazing, it makes sense why it was such a long upload.”
“The graphics are incredible, as well as the animations!”
“The only downside is the optimization; you kinda need a very powerful phone to play, hence the graphics same goes with internet connection.”
“The dilemma I'm having with this game though is when I zoom in, the screen turns black and I can't see anything. This also happens during the screenplay and cutscenes. The screen seems to come back on when I turn the graphic quality up to the highest setting, but the problem eventually just comes back, and the app just closes or stops working.”
“I downloaded the game and was excited right up until it told me to get another device to play it on because this one's graphics were too low.”

“The story is convoluted and poorly explained, mainly due to an awful English translation, and the other aspects (the choices, jobs, etc.) are only in the background.”

Overall, while the game showcases impressive visuals, significant optimization improvements are needed to enhance the experience for a broader range of devices.
“Excellent game, the first thing that is obvious is its graphics, very good, very well optimized, but what is not seen with the naked eye is: a very good story, character development, good music, countless things to do (really many!), the game has an atmosphere that reminds me of Final Fantasy 8, for the gardens (schools or in this case, university), professions, riding in different vehicles, etc.”
“It's an amazing game with solid controls, excellent visuals, and great optimization.”
“Waaaaaay too good to be a mobile game the graphics and storyline are so good and I love how optimized my game runs on my Nova 5T.”
