The game's story is described as cute and touching, focusing on the relationship between two schoolgirls in a modern Japanese setting, but it suffers from rushed pacing and a lack of character development. While some players appreciated the sweet themes and found the ending satisfying, many expressed disappointment with the abrupt conclusion and the overall brevity of the narrative. The translation issues and superficial writing detracted from the experience for some, leaving a mixed impression of the story's depth and execution.

- “In the end, it's quite a lovely and well-written doujin with a satisfying payoff to its story.”

Overall, the graphics serve as a highlight but do not elevate the experience significantly due to the uninspiring story and disappointing ending.
