The story is generally considered average and somewhat repetitive, lacking the depth and excitement of the original anime, with a focus on crafting clothing and completing quests rather than engaging plot development. While the characters are well-written and provide situational comedy, the main narrative feels weak and linear, often relying on fan service rather than substantial storytelling. Overall, fans of the series may find some enjoyment, but the story does not meet the high expectations set by the anime.
“Although the main story is bland, the characters are faithfully written and their routes shine the brightest.”
“This is instead a full-fledged side story that could very easily have been an episode in the show or something like that.”
“I missed these idiots, and I'm enjoying the story more than I thought I would.”
“The main plot isn't interesting and does get repetitive at times; the main antagonist doesn't even have a look.”
“In regards to the actual story (because this is a visual novel), it's pretty weak and uninteresting.”
“Tedious and grindy gameplay, poor production quality, and a story that - while decent as a whole - doesn’t really measure up to the quality you would expect from this series.”

The gameplay has been criticized for being repetitive, tedious, and grindy, with many players noting that it feels more like a mobile game than a premium title. While some appreciate the resource management and crafting mechanics as a break from the extensive dialogue, the overall experience is marred by a lack of engaging gameplay and a story that doesn't fully capitalize on the source material. Despite these issues, the visual novel elements and character interactions still hold appeal for fans of the genre.

“Aside from the visual novel aspect, we have real gameplay with resource management to obtain the materials needed to make the different clothes, which I appreciate.”
“The management sim game mechanics are solid and give players a little break from the dialogue.”
“The gameplay is repetitive after a while.”

“The non-vocal music fits well with the atmosphere and has a strong fantasy feeling.”
“The music is great!”
“Even with the music turned to the lowest audible setting, it can drown out Kazuma.”
“The ending song is original and features vocals from Rie Takahashi, Sora Amamiya, and Ai Kayano, but it doesn't leave a lasting impression.”
“While the non-vocal music fits the atmosphere, it lacks variety and becomes repetitive.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and low-effort, requiring them to repetitively engage in unfulfilling tasks, such as crafting clothing, to unlock character routes.

“The rest of this game is shallow, tedious, and way too low-effort for the price they are asking.”
“Upon beating the game, you will need to go back and basically grind through the tedious gameplay elements of crafting clothing in order to fulfill the conditions to get on a character’s route.”
“Tedious and grindy gameplay, poor production quality, and a story that - while decent as a whole - doesn’t really measure up to the quality you would expect from this series.”

Follow Kazuma and company, as they discover a mysterious "Black Slab" with the ability to create magical outfits that curse the wearer with new, intense desires. The girls must wear each of these outfits and fulfil these desires to break the curse and complete their quest. Are you ready to meet Darkness as a ruthless dominatrix? How about Aqua as a primp and proper goddess? Or Megumin as the proud leader of the Lolita League? Nintendo Switch version reviewed. Review copy provided by company for testing purposes.Konosuba: Love for These Clothes of Desire! is a zany dress-up visual novel filled with fanservice for Konosuba fans, but plays too many dress-up moments straight which feels contrary to the series that often plays up the humor or has some sort of meta commentary about its raunchy moments.
