The game features a surprisingly engaging story with humor and multiple endings, encouraging replayability.
The art style is colorful and appealing, reminiscent of Western-style comics, which adds to the overall charm of the game.
The jazz soundtrack complements the game's atmosphere well, enhancing the experience without being intrusive.

The lack of basic quality-of-life features such as manual saves, a skip button, and a gallery makes the game frustrating to replay.
Character development is limited due to the short length of the game, leaving some story elements vague and underexplored.
The interactive elements, particularly the sex scenes, feel underdeveloped and lack animations, which detracts from the overall experience.

The story in this game is a mixed bag, with some players finding it engaging and humorous, while others criticize its lack of depth and character development due to the game's short length. Many appreciate the branching paths and choices that affect the narrative, adding replay value, but some feel the plot is overshadowed by adult themes and poor writing. Overall, while the story has its entertaining moments and unique elements, it often falls short of being fully realized.
- “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 throughout the story and some of them lead to different side and main story endings as well.”
- “I expected a very shallow visual novel where the sex was the only selling point, but found the story weirdly interesting, where I wanted to keep going and see how the mystery wraps up.”
- “Some elements of the story were left vague, or unexplained and abandoned.”
- “Boring as hell; if you're into long drawn-out stories, all yours. If you're into stories and a little nudity, then forget it. The game was fun for the first 30 minutes, then you just don't care and ignore everything anyone was saying.”
- “The ending was so anticlimactic it seemed that the developer was acknowledging the fact that the plot was merely a poorly contrived excuse for frisky to meet a bunch of women whom he could set about seducing.”

- “Music-wise, the jazz genre dominates the experience, which is not a bad choice for this type of story.”
- “A naughty dating sim/detective adventure, graphic novel with a lovely blues soundtrack.”

The game's replayability is mixed; while it offers multiple endings and romance options that can change the story experience, the lack of a skip feature for previously seen text can hinder enjoyment during subsequent playthroughs. Players seeking to unlock achievements and explore all romantic paths may find value in replaying, but the limited number of endings and the game's overall structure may reduce its long-term appeal.
- “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.”
- “I do think it has replay value, especially for the achievements and finding all endings.”
- “Some replayability for achievement hunters and options to, hmmm, 'date' all the girls.”
- “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 (although there are only three different endings anyway).”
- “Some replayability for 'achievement hunters' and options to, hmmm, 'date' all the girls.”
- “Added to the replay value are trading cards (they have a low market/gem value) and pretty artwork... $4.99 though?”
