The story of "Infinity Nikki" has received mixed reviews, particularly following the controversial 1.5 update that retconned the original narrative. Many players expressed disappointment over the removal of a beloved introduction and the introduction of a convoluted multiverse plot, which has left both new and returning players confused. While some appreciate the game's whimsical and cozy storytelling, the overall sentiment is that the narrative has become disjointed and less engaging, overshadowed by monetization concerns and technical issues.
- “This game is super cozy, story-driven, and adorable.”
- “The story is well written and enjoyable to see the twists and turns they come up with.”
- “The story is deep and beautiful and has a lot more to come.”
- “The story has been retconned, the introduction me and many other players loved is gone and has been replaced with a confusing mess that also seems to be an ad for the current limited gacha banner.”
- “The retcon of the original story is crazy work, where it was cute and wholesome, they went for an end of the world scenario with multiple possibilities (to introduce the co-op) and it just rubs me the wrong way that the magical star lady is brushing those worlds lost like 'oh well, we can just do over!'”
- “The new story was garbage and doesn't make sense.”

The gameplay of "Infinity Nikki" is characterized by a blend of cozy exploration, dress-up mechanics, and light combat, appealing to fans of casual gaming. While the graphics and outfit designs are praised for their beauty, many players express frustration with performance issues, repetitive tasks, and the intrusive gacha mechanics that can detract from the overall experience. Despite these drawbacks, the game offers a relaxing atmosphere and engaging gameplay loops, making it enjoyable for those who appreciate its unique blend of fashion and exploration, though it may not satisfy everyone due to its current technical and design flaws.
- “The gameplay is charming, the outfits are gorgeous, and being able to dress Momo up is an added bonus.”
- “Infinity Nikki is a true game-changer for the dress-up genre, seamlessly blending open-world exploration with core fashion mechanics.”
- “The gameplay loop is engaging and satisfying, the open world is genuinely beautiful, and the outfit designs are stunning.”
- “Only downside (and it's a big one) is that the game can take anywhere from half an hour to 2 hours just to open and often crashes after less than an hour of gameplay.”
- “But the actual gameplay is far from cozy when lags and glitches ruin your experience.”
- “Unfortunately, greediness got the best of Infold; the whole version 1.5 fiasco really ruined future prospects and outside of the first bits, the interesting storyline from the original intro has pretty much been abandoned. Every new version is just the same washed-up gameplay with a few tweaks here and there, it's awfully dreary and boring.”

- “Love it and runs great on the deck!”

- “Runs great!”
- “I really do love the game, but it's impossible to play with the lag and game-breaking glitches with the new update, and none of the minor updates seem to do anything aside from making it take longer to access the game itself when I want to play.”
- “The game is buggy, laggy, the UI breaks at times, it had problems with lore in the past, and while the clothing pieces are interesting, they are not worth the time and money spent grinding and gambling for them.”
- “The game is currently a confusing, buggy mess; they've destroyed the story just to promote their new limited gacha outfits that will have no relevance once this update is over.”

- “I only played for like half an hour and ran into the first bad lags with graphics at minimum settings; an hour later I had an event quest which I just can't progress since the button doesn't work and there isn't even an error message, so I'm stuck in a quest that is only there for a limited time.”

- “The new mini game is not for me; it's like music tiles if the music timing taps were offbeat and had no rhythm. The keys don't match the song, and that's just jarring to me.”
- “Fps drops, broken textures, loading failures, missing music… even the intro theme, once the heartbeat of my daily ritual, fell silent.”
- “The difficulty is laughable; it's too easy. When you find enemies, it stops the music with an annoying song, ruining the immersion. If the game has to be this easy, then just let it be an exploration game, not one where the same annoying and repetitive enemies ruin the atmosphere until you defeat them.”

- “The overall storyline is very unique and kind of funny (find pretty dresses and unlock special outfit abilities to save the world!) but you can tell how much time and love the developers poured into this game.”
- “It's just kinda a JRPG dreamscape where conflict is solved through fashion and everyone you meet is charming, funny, or at least ... seem to know you, in a neighborly way, as though you've known them your whole life - and they depend on you, even for strange tasks like identifying bugs in photographs.”
- “The writing isn't winning any awards but I find Nikki to be a very refreshing protagonist and her quirky responses are hilarious.”

- “The atmosphere, the music/effects, the landscapes, and just the graphics themselves are made so beautifully.”
- “The whimsical atmosphere brings back the nostalgic joy of the old Barbie games and movies I grew up with—comforting, relaxing, and full of heart.”

- “These changes ruin the atmosphere of the wonderful magical world Nikki comes to and create a significant conflict with the main story quest line.”
- “The difficulty is laughable, it's too easy so easy that when you find enemies it's just boring because it stops the music with an annoying song, just because of some enemies that you're going to defeat with no effort, this completely ruins the immersion.”

- “Main character development:”
