The game's story is set in an engaging Edo period backdrop, featuring a unique blend of quests and character interactions that enhance the gameplay experience. While the narrative is enjoyable and fast-paced, some players feel it could benefit from improved coherence and creativity, particularly in its text and translation. Overall, the story mode offers a strategic and dynamic approach, making it a notable aspect of the game, especially for fans of the genre.
- “The story is nice, the art's awesome, and the whole Edo period setting is great.”
- “Once the tutorial is completed, the game moves on to the various quests taken on by Saburota (gender bender in Ranma 1/2 style) and his tanuki (raccoon dog) Takeru on behalf of his feng shui master mother.”
- “Some locations will reveal the story as you progress and maybe introduce new characters that will join you on your quest.”
- “With that in mind, the text could be more creative, coherent, and better fitting to make the story a bigger part of the game.”
- “The game deals more with a story than most tower defense type games, and many of the 'maps' are short and sudden where you have to very quickly develop a tactic to win, not as slow-paced as most other tower defense games I've played.”
- “Once the tutorial is completed, the game moves on to the various quests taken on by Saburota (a gender-bender in Ranma 1/2 style) and his tanuki (raccoon dog) Takeru on behalf of his feng shui master mother.”

The gameplay is noted for its originality, allowing players to choose from three distinct styles or combine them for a unique experience. While the mechanics are well-explained through a tutorial and incorporate engaging RPG elements, some users find the gameplay to be repetitive despite its cute art style. Overall, the blend of RTS and RPG features is appreciated, with a desire for more games to adopt this approach.
- “The gameplay's pretty original; you can use whichever works best for you from the three available options, or you can play with a combination of them.”
- “I really like this new gameplay style, and I wish this would be more common, especially since every RTS plays better with RPG elements, like ability choices for the main hero.”
- “The story mode starts with a tutorial explaining the mechanics of combat (point and click, with special shortcut keys), power-ups, support items, and special moves, all in the form of torii (support and defense) and megatamas (special combinable elemental attributes for the torii).”
- “While the art is cute, the gameplay is repetitive.”
- “The gameplay is pretty original, but it can feel limited with only three available options.”
- “The story mode starts with a tutorial explaining the mechanics of combat, but it doesn't fully prepare you for the repetitive nature of the gameplay.”
