    The story of the game is generally perceived as underwhelming, featuring flat characters and a simplistic plot that often prioritizes erotic content over depth. While some players appreciated the unexpected twists and darker themes introduced later in the narrative, many felt that the overall development was lacking, leaving them wanting more from both the characters and the storyline. Despite its shortcomings, the artwork and music received praise, making it a visually appealing experience, albeit one that may not resonate with those seeking a rich narrative.

    • “The story can get dark at times, with both general and sexual assault being plot points of differing degrees in certain endings.”
    • “I was pleasantly surprised that the story turned out to be not as light-hearted as it seemed at first - there were some topics worth discussing and I think that the authors presented them in the right way.”
    • “Instinct is sweetly drawn, the music is very nice, and the plot has an unexpected twist.”
    • “The story... the characters... you won't get attached to any of them.”
    • “The plot as it is currently isn't all that interesting.”
    • “This visual novel is more focused on the erotic content than the story, which is alright, but I honestly found myself wanting to learn more about the plot and characters.”

  • music10 mentions

    The music in the game is generally described as pleasant and nice to listen to, though it consists of only a few simple tracks that may become repetitive over time.

    • “With how short the story is, you will not get tired of the music, so I would like to list it among the game’s good points.”
    • “There are not many music tracks – just about four or five, I think, and they are rather simple.”
    • “The art is very polished and clean, as if a speck of dust would ruin the whole world, and the music is better left off, unless you, of course, like the same thing over and over for however long you need to get through the story.”
