The gameplay is generally considered secondary to other elements of the game, with some players finding it overshadowed by discomforting aspects. However, those who can overlook these issues may enjoy the challenging boss fights and unique dungeon-crawling mechanics, which offer a fresh take on familiar formulas. While the core gameplay is engaging, it may not appeal to everyone due to its repetitive nature and the game's overall art style.
- “The dungeon crawling mechanics are a nice twist on the usual Etrian formula that I'm used to.”
- “To balance these helpful mechanics, there's no way to teleport to a safe zone like in Etrian, so the player will need to be very careful in outmaneuvering enemies.”
- “Overall, despite the sort of hit and miss nature of the story and its characters, there's enough to make you want to really sink your teeth into where the game shines, and that's the core gameplay.”
- “The first thing of note is that the gameplay is sort of eclipsed by everything else.”
- “To balance these helpful mechanics, there's no way to teleport to a safe-zone like in Etrian, so the player will need to be very careful in outmaneuvering enemies.”
- “Well, I do recommend that game to others, though it has its flaws and might not suit everyone with its gameplay and art style.”

The story is a mixed bag, featuring a visual novel style with a solid central mystery and engaging character interactions, but it suffers from clichés, confusing elements, and uneven character development. While some players may find the dialogue cringeworthy and the themes unnecessary, others appreciate the depth of the three main character arcs that encourage multiple playthroughs. Overall, the narrative has its strengths and weaknesses, but it keeps players invested in the gameplay.
- “The overall mystery of the tower and main plot of the game are solidly written, keeping you going until the end, but it preserves a light-hearted tone with plenty of amusing interactions between the main four characters.”
- “Still, the three girls inspired me to go through the game three times to see all of their personal storylines and endings.”
- “The story itself is quite good; however, since I played other games by Neok, I know he could have done better.”
- “The story is okay, if a little confusing and cliché, but a lot of players will probably be put off by the cringeworthy dialogue, terrible art, stolen monster designs, and wholly unnecessary sexual themes.”
- “The characters do grow a decent amount as the game goes on, though I can't help but feel like there wasn't a good balance to their development, with one character feeling far more central to the plot than the others, making them feel underdeveloped as a result.”
- “Overall, the story is fairly decent, though it can be pretty hit and miss at times.”

The dating and relationship scenes significantly enhance the game's replayability by offering players the opportunity to explore different facets of party members, with one character featuring numerous references to alter a.i.l.a. This encourages multiple playthroughs to experience all the varied interactions and storylines.
- “The dating scenes and relationship scenes add a lot of replayability due to how they show another side of the party members, and one of them will have a ton of references to alter a.i.l.a.”
