“I enjoy all the characters, backstory, and the art is divine.”
“The storyline was awesome.”
“Such a beautiful and empowering storyline, thank you very much producers for this, I enjoyed it ever so much.”
“A few hours in, the story doesn't make sense because in the midst of chaos, they'll kind of do something that has nothing to do with it... but the ending was beautiful. I made the four endings, well.”
“I like the main character here too; however, I think the main character needs a little more character development. The main character was average. That being said, the story made up for what the characters lacked, and I'm really impressed by it!”
“And even though I disliked the beginning a lot, Jinta was a jerk and the main character was weak; she grew as a character and got stronger as the story progressed.”

Many users feel that the game prioritizes profit over player experience, creating a cash grab atmosphere.
“The only way to gain more is to wait 4 hours to watch ads to get enough for gems.”
“I really wish I didn't have to spend money (for rubies) to be able to take the choices that I want to make. It feels like a cash grab, but did you really have to make the amount of starter rubies so low?”
