62 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe story is visually appealing and features interesting lore, but it suffers from a rushed narrative and repetitive elements across different routes, leading to underdeveloped relationships and abrupt transitions. While some characters, like Thalia, add charm and depth, the overall execution leaves much to be desired, with many players feeling that the potential for a richer story remains untapped. Despite its entertaining aspects, the narrative often feels bland and lacks the depth needed to fully engage players.
“The story is interesting and I liked the lore behind the gods.”
“The best thing I can mention about the story is that Thalia is actually an interesting character, and you have the possibility to scold, rebuke, and refuse the gods' advances when they act like creeps or whiny children.”
“The story concept is very interesting and executed very well.”
“The art is pretty, but the story is, well, bland.”
“The relationships are rushed, the story is rushed, even the decisive scenes between the characters are rushed or even skipped.”
“Imagine you're reading a story and the whole time a character is talking about a significant person from their past who you never meet. Suddenly, the character has an opportunity to meet this person again, and you, the reader, think you'll get to meet this person as well, but then the story cuts to the day after with the characters basically saying 'well, that was fun!'.”
