While not groundbreaking, it balances horror and humor effectively, with choices impacting the narrative especially toward the conclusion, encouraging multiple playthroughs. Some players wished for deeper agency and more routes, but overall, the story is a standout feature praised for its charm, complexity, and emotional resonance.

    • “Each route feels fresh, and each romance has an undeniably unique story I've rarely seen in any other visual novel, not to mention the world itself is so well-fleshed out.”
    • “The reality show trappings keep the story tight and propulsive, the choices are always interesting, the characters and writing are a total joy.”
    • “The decisions you make alter the story in interesting ways, and it rewards you for replaying and seeing different sides of the situations.”
    • “If I had to give one main negative, I didn't feel like I had as much agency or sway over the story line as I'd like.”
    • “The first time I played through the story I just happened to vote in a way that lined up with how the eliminations went, so the second time around it was disappointing to see there wasn't a real difference being made by my choices when I went with the other options.”
    • “I did find myself wishing for more choices and that I could spend more time with some of the characters here and there, the story just felt a little bit rushed sometimes, but I guess that's the nature of small projects like this one.”
