Despite its charm, the gameplay fails to provide a compelling or immersive experience.

- “It has funny characters and nice, easy gameplay.”
- “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.”

- “Gameplay is aggressively boring.”

The game's story is described as a mix of humor and absurdity, featuring bad cat jokes and a straightforward narrative typical of turn-based RPGs. While some reviewers find it pointless or generic, others appreciate its creativity and humor, especially given the low price point. Overall, it offers a decent storyline that keeps players engaged without excessive grinding.
- “But I wasn't bored, I wasn't annoyed at the difficulty, and I wanted to see the story through... the final message box was funny... in a way.”
- “RPG Maker gets a bad rap for having low-effort, generic games because it's a 'beginner's game engine', but sometimes creative people lack technical expertise, and a real creative story can be found behind unambitious production values.”
- “Not a lot of grinding, not difficult to get the money for better equipment, and a decent storyline with a few chuckles.”
- “Direct in its play but a pointless, stupid 'story.' Yet for being so cheap, it works.”
- “The story follows pretty standard lines.”
- “So if you are up for bad cat jokes and a super weird storyline in a turn-based RPG for very little money, I would recommend checking it out.”
