The game's story is a mixed bag, with some players finding it entertaining and engaging due to its humor and multiple endings, while others criticize it for being shallow and lacking depth. Many appreciate the integration of romance and mystery elements, which add replay value, but some feel the overall narrative is basic and the dialogue poor. Overall, the story is seen as a highlight for its quirky charm and decision-making impact, despite its brevity and tonal inconsistencies.
“The story was what actually kept me hooked.”
“It's actually also one of the few games that I played in which your choices matter a lot; they are mentioned through the story and some of them lead to different side and main story endings as well.”
“This game is very rich in story content and consequences.”
“The art's not very interesting or appealing, the story's lackluster, the dialogue's poor, and none of the quality of life features other visual novels have are present.”
“Whatever you're playing this game for, it's not the story, and you'll just try to be hurrying along.”
“All characters are so unlikeable, the plot is stupid and the sex scenes, which are probably the main reason to buy this game, are equally as bad as the entire rest of this game.”

The music in the game receives mixed reviews, with some players finding it generic and reminiscent of royalty-free tracks, while others appreciate the jazz elements that enhance the detective theme.

“Saxophone music is very good for detective stuff, very nice soundtracks.”
“Music: awesome and varied.”
“The art is very well done as are the music and sound effects.”
“The music itself is the weakest part; most of it sounds way too generic and borders on royalty-free tracks you can get for free.”
“So basically music, and sound I assume, are either on or off, no volume controls!”
“First impression; got blasted away by way too loud music, looked for options, saw that there were no options button.”

“This game is gorgeous visually speaking with really enjoyable gameplay and a well-made story.”
“Gameplay would be perfect :)”
“If you played one before, you can expect the same type of gameplay.”

The game's replayability is hindered by the lack of a skip feature for previously seen text, which can make replays tedious, especially since there are only three different endings. However, the ability to romance different characters and the resulting impact on story moments adds significant replay value for players looking to explore all narrative paths.
“You can romance the college girls, and sometimes their romance options will lock you out of certain story moments involving the mystery, which is a very cool feature and adds a ton of replay value to see every ending.”
“My biggest issue with the game is that there is absolutely no skip feature (not even for already seen text), which makes figuring out what to do a bit tedious and the replay value drops considerably, especially since there are only three different endings.”
