The monetization aspect of this visual/interactive novel is criticized for being misleading, as it primarily serves as a poorly executed advertisement rather than a legitimate game or complete narrative. Users express frustration over the lack of gameplay and quality, questioning the decision to publish what feels like an incomplete and unengaging product on a gaming platform.
- “As an advertisement for a visual/interactive novel, this doesn't feature any notable gameplay; it's just a lot of clicking through badly written dialogue that would never have been accepted or published in print, which poses the question, 'how did something this badly written end up on Steam?'”
- “This isn't a game and it's not even a complete book; it's just a badly made advertisement for a fan-fiction.”

Imagine the best novel you ever read, whether it's 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy', '2001: A Space Odyssey', or even 'Twilight' (if you have terrible taste in literature), but then translate that to a format where the words dribble out and you have to click your mouse every time you want to read the next sentence, instead of just turning the pages.”
