  • The game features interesting worldbuilding and a beautiful art style that captures the essence of Kamigawa.
  • As a free visual novel, it serves as a decent time killer and introduces players to the Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty setting.
  • The characters are fun, and the story, while not perfect, has engaging elements that can pique interest in the Kamigawa lore.
  • The game suffers from poor pacing, lack of character development, and feels more like an advertisement for Magic: the Gathering than a standalone experience.
  • It is riddled with typos and fails to deliver meaningful choices, leaving players feeling that their decisions have little impact.
  • The overall execution is seen as rushed and underfunded, leading to a mediocre experience that doesn't fully utilize its potential.

    The game's story is described as interesting, with engaging side quests and a visually appealing setting, particularly in the undercity. However, many players feel that the plot lacks meaningful character development and that player choices have little impact on the narrative or characters. While some appreciate the side story that introduces the world of Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty, overall sentiment is mixed, with some players expressing disappointment in the story's execution.

    • “Interesting story, good side quests, and I like the city view in Undercity.”
    • “In this game, all the factions more or less hate one another, but the art is good, the story is interesting, and the characters/music are okay too!”
    • “An interesting little side story that helps to introduce players to the world of Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty.”
    • “The plot threads with the side characters don't develop into anything; the choices mean little, if anything at all. From the very last choice, I never got to see any of those decisions influence any of the characters, including the player character's kami, in any meaningful way.”
    • “The story feels disjointed and lacks coherence, making it difficult to become invested in the characters or their journeys.”
    • “Despite the potential for an engaging narrative, the execution falls flat, leaving players with a sense of disappointment and confusion.”
  • monetization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game is criticized for feeling like an underfunded advertisement rather than a fully developed experience, suggesting that it prioritizes promotional content over engaging gameplay. While it serves as an effective advertisement for the Magic: The Gathering universe, it lacks depth and investment.

    • “What could have been an interesting look into a Magic: The Gathering plane outside of the narratives that the card game keeps centering around just becomes an underfunded advertisement.”
    • “As far as advertisement games go, this is a good one.”
  • music
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally considered acceptable, complementing the interesting story and good art, though it does not stand out as a highlight.

    • “In this game, all the factions more or less hate one another, but the art is good, the story is interesting, and the characters/music are okay too!”
