  • gameplay
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is criticized for being typical of RPG Maker titles, featuring simplistic mechanics that often reduce combat to button-mashing and lack strategic depth. Players find the experience tedious and frustrating due to poor direction and repetitive tasks, overshadowing the otherwise interesting characters and vibrant setting. Overall, the gameplay is deemed low quality and unengaging, failing to elevate the game's narrative strengths.

    • “Characters are interesting, the setting is vibrant, the plot is fun, and the gameplay is engaging.”
    • “While most controls and mechanics are easy to grasp, there will be certain parts of the story where the lack of direction can be frustrating since you are required to perform specific actions in certain locations to progress.”
    • “Overall, the gameplay offers a mix of simplicity and challenge that can appeal to different types of players.”
    • “Like most RPG Maker shovelware and asset flips, the game features extremely low-quality copy-pasted 2D retro pixel art, looks awful, and has even worse gameplay.”
    • “Poor gameplay and boredom is the essence of this junk.”
    • “Overall, an okay story and cohesive graphical design (except the fact that your main heroine's portrait looks absolutely nothing like her sprite) doesn't save this game from being a mess in what matters, the gameplay.”
  • graphics
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in this RPG Maker game are widely criticized for their poor quality, lacking full HD support and customization options, which detracts from the experience for modern gamers. While some elements, like the character artwork, are praised, the overall aesthetic is deemed lacking, with a noticeable disconnect between character portraits and sprites, and a general sense of minimal effort in design.

    • “+awesome graphics”
    • “Overall, an okay story and cohesive graphical design (except the fact that your main heroine's portrait looks absolutely nothing like her sprite) doesn't save this game from being a mess in what matters, the gameplay.”
    • “As with all RPG Maker games, the poor quality engine displays badly in fullscreen and doesn't have full HD support or any graphics tweaking options, making this unacceptable for any dedicated modern PC gamer.”
    • “I have to say, the graphics actually look bad even for RPG Maker standards.”
    • “Other than the girl artwork, everything else about the title screen simply screams 'no effort'.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is polarizing; while some players find it charming and capable of eliciting smiles, others feel it leans more towards annoyance than genuine comedy. Overall, the comedic style may not resonate with everyone, but it has its moments that appeal to certain tastes.

    • “I believe the characters and humor are a little spot on, and that isn't my brand of comedy, but it does make me smile.”
    • “Being annoying is not funny.”
  • grinding
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and lengthy, with some describing it as a chore rather than an engaging experience. While the game offers achievement farming opportunities, the lack of variety and enjoyment in the battle system detracts from the overall experience. Despite its shortcomings, some feel the game is worth its price.

    • “Sorry, I didn't enjoy the battle system; it was too tedious in grinding.”
    • “It's not that it was hard; it was tediously long, and along the way, there was nothing to look at.”
  • monetization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has been criticized as a blatant cash grab, featuring an excessive number of empty achievements designed to attract players seeking easy unlocks. Many users reported that the game felt like a minimum viable product, with most players uninstalling shortly after realizing its lack of substance.

    • “It was just dumped on Steam as a minimum viable product for achievement spam. It had 700 empty achievements at launch; it's just a pure cash grab.”
    • “As an achievement spam 'game' and cash grab, you get all 25 achievements for launching the game and then closing it, but only around 5 percent of players bothered to get that far before uninstalling the game.”
  • stability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game features well-designed multi-layered maps, but users have reported several bugs, particularly with the quest book and specific locations, which detracts from the overall experience. While some players acknowledge these issues, they still find the game enjoyable and worth playing.

    • “The multi-layered maps are well done, but the quest book is buggy. I encountered an error at the witch's house where I found everything in the under but didn't get the new location. There are a few bugs, but overall it's a decent game. I would give it a 6 out of 10 because of the bugs.”
    • “The game has potential, but the stability issues really detract from the experience. I often find myself getting stuck or encountering glitches that disrupt gameplay.”
    • “While the graphics and gameplay are enjoyable, the frequent crashes and bugs make it hard to fully appreciate the game. Stability is a major concern that needs to be addressed.”
