The story is considered underwhelming by some players, despite the appealing graphics and good voiceover. The game features four distinct routes, each offering a unique storyline and backstory, encouraging players to explore all options for a fuller experience. However, the lack of interactivity beyond route selection may leave some players wanting more.
- “In total there are 4 routes, each being unique with a different storyline.”
- “I'd recommend playing all of them, not only to get your money's worth, but each route has different backstory which you won't find out in the other routes.”
- “This is not an interactive visual novel; the only interaction you do in the game is choosing which route or story you decide to go.”
- “I'd recommend playing all of them, not only to get your money's worth, but each route has a different backstory that you won't find out in the other routes.”

The humor in the game is noted to be hit-or-miss, with some lines, like "a stomach bam," eliciting laughter, but players express frustration over the quality of the translation, feeling that such jokes should be polished in a paid product.
