The game's story is generally considered engaging, with a mix of intriguing elements and a straightforward narrative structure that doesn't overwhelm players. While some reviewers noted that the story lacks complexity and can feel reminiscent of stock RPG Maker content, others appreciated the character design and the promise of more content in early access. Overall, the story is seen as a solid backdrop to the combat-focused gameplay, with enough variety in quests to keep players interested.
- “Neat story, limited customization, smooth gameplay, challenging battles.”
- “Haven't gotten too far into the story yet either but it looks promising.”
- “The story is good enough without being overbearing and the character design is really well done and each character really stands out and pops in contrast to each other.”
- “Story, monsters, sounds - all of those could pass for stock content straight from RPG Maker.”
- “Casino is a waste except for two items out of the prizes that you can buy just converting currency; little timed mining mini game to get items to build up your stores, story though this is mainly about grinding combat out.”
- “Story isn't standout so far but it's not a snoozefest, so I give that a +1.”

The gameplay of "Eternal Dreamers" is characterized by a standard turn-based RPG system that incorporates unique mechanics, offering a rewarding and engaging experience despite some rough edges and a lack of polish typical of RPG Maker titles. Players appreciate the smooth combat, interesting character classes, and optional mini-games, although the introduction to mechanics can be confusing and the visuals may not appeal to everyone. Overall, it provides a solid, grind-friendly gameplay loop that can be enjoyable for fans of the genre.
- “Eternal Dreamers is a fun and rather unique turn-based RPG that should appeal to fans of the genre with its enjoyable combat system, well-written, if cliché, characters, and engaging gameplay loop, replacing the typical MP systems and level-based progression with entirely different and engaging systems.”
- “The gameplay loop in general feels rewarding and also just very relaxing to play, the kind of thing I can grind away at whilst watching something on another screen.”
- “It follows a standard turn-based approach, but I feel it does it well with a combination of little mechanics that tie together the moves you can use at any given time.”
- “Like most RPG Maker shovelware and asset flips, the game features extremely low-quality copy-pasted 2D retro pixel art, looks awful, and has even worse gameplay.”
- “It does a poor job of introducing the player to the mechanics, and for some things, trial and error can cost more time and effort than a sensible body cares to devote.”
- “It's more rough around the edges for sure, and the gameplay or presentation isn't nearly as refined.”
grinding

The reviews highlight that grinding is a central aspect of the game, often required for leveling up and acquiring expensive equipment, especially after reaching level 20 where XP gains significantly slow down. While some players find the grinding enjoyable and rewarding, particularly with mini-games and customization options, others criticize it for being excessive and tedious, especially in comparison to alternative methods of progression. Overall, the game caters to those who appreciate grind-heavy gameplay, but may deter players seeking a more balanced experience.
- “But beware: there is a lot of grinding for XP and money in order to progress in this game!”
- “Equipment gets pretty expensive, and after you hit level 20, XP gains slow right down... so the game is very grindy.”
- “Casino is a waste except for two items out of the prizes that you can buy just by converting currency; little timed mining mini-game to get items to build up your stores, though this is mainly about grinding combat out.”

The graphics in the game are a mixed bag; while the character artwork is praised for its clean and professional look, the RPG Maker engine limits the overall visual quality, lacking full HD support and customization options. This may deter dedicated modern PC gamers, but those who appreciate the unique art style may still find it appealing.
- “The artwork is excellent.”
- “I love the art style on the character pictures; it's very clean and professional looking.”
- “This game reminds me of Might & Magic and Leisure Suit Larry play style with Rusty Hearts' toon artwork.”
- “As with all RPG Maker games, the poor quality engine displays badly in fullscreen and doesn't have full HD support or any graphics tweaking options, making this unacceptable for any dedicated modern PC gamer.”
- “This game reminds me of Might & Magic and Leisure Suit Larry play style with rusty hearts toon artwork.”
- “If you're looking for some solid grindy gameplay loops and don't mind the general RPG Maker aesthetic, I'd say it's worth looking into.”

Character development is highlighted through well-executed character designs that stand out and enhance the overall aesthetic of the game. While the story is engaging, it does not overshadow the appeal of the characters, which are described as cute and visually distinct, contributing significantly to the game's charm.
- “The story is good enough without being overbearing, and the character design is really well done. Each character really stands out and pops in contrast to each other.”
- “The character designs are the main selling point and are quite well done. The music is catchy, and the battle sprites (character and enemy) and backgrounds are nice enough to look at, which is good when you're spending most of your time in battles.”
- “Great game with super cute character designs.”
- “The character development feels shallow and lacks depth, making it hard to connect with the characters on a personal level.”
- “While the character designs are visually appealing, the actual development and growth of the characters throughout the game are disappointingly minimal.”
- “The characters are memorable in appearance, but their arcs are predictable and fail to evolve meaningfully as the story progresses.”

The game's stability is inconsistent, with some users experiencing frequent screen freezes and loading issues, particularly during the intro. However, others report that restarting the game often resolves these problems, leading to a generally bug-free experience thereafter.
- “The game intro is broken; the screen freezes at random after a few seconds of playing.”
- “I experienced a few freezes, and there were times when the game didn't load. However, after stopping and restarting the game, it worked fine. Other than that, I didn't encounter any bugs or issues that bothered me.”
monetization
1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Users express frustration with the game's monetization practices, noting that the developer has prioritized profit over addressing critical bugs, which has persisted for nearly two years.
