The gameplay is generally well-received, praised for its simplicity, humor, and engaging mechanics reminiscent of Metroidvania titles, though some players noted clunky controls and a need for fine-tuning. While the game offers enjoyable mechanics and secrets, it lacks depth in character abilities and can be frustrating due to audio issues. Overall, the gameplay is solid but could benefit from improvements in certain areas.
“Fairly simple gameplay, but easy mechanics and good humor.”
“A fun plot, cute waifus, and solid gameplay.”
“There is also a nice Metroidvania aspect going on here, with a lot of fun little secrets and mechanics.”
“Clunky gameplay and controls; then again, it's RPG Maker.”
“Whilst the dialogue is fun, and there's some fan service in the game for people into that, the gameplay itself could use some fine tuning.”
“Character abilities are limited to a degree, and whilst the condition break mechanic is useful, the actual how of triggering them becomes increasingly esoteric knowledge.”

The story is described as fun and engaging, with a simple and cohesive plot that complements the gameplay. While the characters lack depth, players appreciate the lighthearted dialogue and the opportunity to interact with them in camp. Overall, it appeals to those seeking a cute adventure experience without heavy adult themes.
“I'd say, if you'd like a cute adventure game that has a nice story, a simple plot that works out so well (meaning it's not all over the place) and you like picking girls up from dungeons, this is a game for you.”
“So far, I haven't really seen any 'adult' content but everything works, and I'm enjoying the story.”
“The characters didn't have a ton of depth or anything, but you do get to know them a bit from chatting with them back in camp, and with this style of game, it's clear that the focus was on the gameplay itself and light on story.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and at times frustrating, particularly when the rewards feel minimal, such as obtaining only a few photos. Despite this, many still enjoy the game overall and consider it worth the price.
“So overall it ain't worth the trouble of grinding this game to get 6 measly photos.”
“But other than those two issues I've had, I've really enjoyed this game even though it can get a little tedious and grindy at times.”
