  • gameplay
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay offers a mix of enjoyable mechanics with diverse options for city and character development, reminiscent of the first idle caliber game, which was rewarding despite its rough edges. However, the inclusion of unnecessary tabletop RPG elements complicates the experience, detracting from the overall enjoyment and leaving players frustrated with the design choices and content quality. Fans of waifu collecting and dating sim mechanics may find more to appreciate, but the gameplay lacks cohesion.

    • “Mechanically, the game is pretty fun with plenty of options on how you want to develop your city and characters.”
    • “The first idle caliber was a hidden gem—rough around the edges, but ultimately rewarding once you took the time to understand its mechanics.”
    • “Another problem is the unnecessary tabletop RPG mechanics—such as dice rolls, saving throws, and success/failure checks—that complicate gameplay rather than enhance it.”
    • “The game's design choices, frustrating mechanics, and lackluster content leave a lot to be desired.”
    • “Game mechanics are sort of everywhere.”

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is generally well-received, with players appreciating its quality alongside the game's impressive art and music.

Overall, the story enhances the experience, contributing to a more polished and modern presentation.

    • “The story is pretty good, the art is awesome, and the music is so damn good!”
    • “This game just takes the first game, has a slightly better translation, better tutorial, makes it more polished/modern looking, adds a story, and adds a bunch of effects but at the expense of the above issues.”

  • monetization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy has been criticized for feeling like a cash grab, as players feel that the art, while visually appealing, does not enhance the overall gaming experience or provide meaningful value. This has led to disappointment among users regarding the game's financial model.

  • optimization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users report that the game's optimization is subpar, with high CPU usage around 20% and RAM usage of 2GB even when minimized, despite applying all recommended performance tweaks from the developer.
