    • “The story had so many feelings sewn throughout it, and was very well written.”
    • “Pacing in the narrative suffers as it rushes to introduce characters and numerous plot points in a shotgun approach to hook readers that can instead turn them off from the overload.”
    • “The story is all over the place.”
    • “I feel that the story of the game is incredibly stale; the characters' lines made me cringe a lot; what they say isn't what anyone would ever say.”
  • music48 mentions

    The music in the game is widely praised for its emotional depth and contextual fit, enhancing the overall atmosphere and storytelling.

    • “This game was one of my favorite games of this year; its music and art were absolutely amazing and gave the game a great aesthetic.”
    • “The game also has a great soundtrack fitting to each scene; whether it is happy, serious, or sad, the music is very well composed.”
    • “The music can be repetitive, and without a pause button if you feel the need to alt-tab and take a break, you can't stop the music without advancing the scene or exiting the game.”
    • “Typical RPG Maker noises that erupt whenever selecting anything, along with the stock soundtrack.”
    • “As much as I love visual novels, the music featured tends to make me sleepy without fail.”
  • graphics36 mentions

    The graphics of the game have received widespread acclaim for their stunning artwork and character designs, with many reviewers praising the vibrant backgrounds and high-quality visuals.

    • “Though if you don't like the art style or the choice of the type of 'species' the developers had decided to use.”
  • gameplay24 mentions

    The gameplay in this visual novel is primarily driven by story progression, with limited interactivity that often leads to a feeling of passivity among players. While the choice mechanics and multiple endings offer some replay value, many users criticize the lack of variation and repetitive gameplay elements, as well as restrictive save options that detract from the overall experience. Suggestions for improvement include enhancing the save functionality and providing more engaging gameplay mechanics to elevate player involvement.

    • “Well, while a visual novel is mainly the story itself, there are gameplay elements I should address that make or break the game.”
    • “The game has the choice mechanic where you're able to choose your own path, and the game has multiple endings, so replay value is very high within this game.”
    • “Although it matches all the criteria a visual novel must have, the game mechanics are different from others; for example, you don't have the possibility to save the game whenever you want, you just get the option to save at certain save points in the game.”
    • “As for the gameplay itself, I have one minor complaint: there's not nearly enough variation to the story to feel like you're as active in the quest as I certainly would have.”
    • “All you do is click the screen or press enter on your keyboard to advance the story, so there isn't much gameplay.”
    • “With the game's current content, playability, and gameplay, it should only be $5, once again, in my opinion.”
  • character development14 mentions

    Character development in the game is a mixed bag; while the character designs and artwork are praised for their uniqueness and quality, many reviewers feel that the actual development of the characters is lacking, with limited choices and depth. The aesthetic appeal, particularly for fans of anthropomorphic art, is highlighted, but some players express disappointment over the insufficient exploration of character personalities and backstories. Overall, the visuals are celebrated, but they do not compensate for the perceived shortcomings in character development.

    • “Seriously though, I really do love some of the character designs - they're interesting and unique without being overly blinding. The bunny brothers especially are absolutely precious and have such interesting personalities.”
    • “Artwork, character design, dialogue flow, soundtrack, and replay value are all stellar components of this game and the tale it has to tell!”
    • “Another detail that should be said is the art style; even if you are not into the furry fandom, you must admit that the character design and scenes are very well detailed.”
    • “For starters, there is this aura of mystery that is very cool until it makes you feel like it's overcompensating for a lack of character development.”
    • “Yes, there is poor character development, not many choices, and blah blah.”
    • “Most of the character designs are bad; I felt like I was browsing people's OCs on Fur Affinity.”
  • emotional11 mentions

    Players have praised the game for its emotionally resonant music and storytelling, which evoke strong feelings ranging from happiness to sadness, with some even expressing a deep personal connection to the narrative. However, there are critiques regarding the lack of varied emotional expressions in character designs, which can undermine the impact of certain scenes. Overall, the game is recognized for its emotional depth and ability to engage players on a profound level.

    • “The music, oh my god: they were contextually fitting to the settings and emotional contexts.”
    • “Few things get me feeling emotional; this was one of them.”
    • “This game is one of the best and well-designed games I have ever played; surprisingly, the background music in the ark made me cry. It made me feel emotional; I've been trying to find that music on YouTube but unfortunately, I couldn't find it. I'm still searching though. By the way, this game made my life meaningful; it changed me in a good way.”
  • replayability8 mentions

    Overall, the game offers a decent level of replayability, primarily due to its choice-driven mechanics and multiple endings, with some users rating it around 6-7/10. However, the experience can be hampered by a cumbersome save system and the need to reread dialogue, despite options to skip scenes. Additionally, the presence of numerous achievements further enhances the incentive to replay.

    • “Artwork, character design, dialogue flow, soundtrack, and replay value are all stellar components of this game and the tale it has to tell!”
    • “The game has a choice mechanic where you're able to choose your own path, and it has multiple endings, so the replay value is very high within this game.”
    • “This game is fairly replayable, considering you can 'skip' a lot of dialogue by holding the mouse or enter keys. Any scene you want to get through can be done in about 5 minutes.”
    • “It seems to have a lot of replayability too, because of the different choices you can make along the way, but I won't verify that until the whole story is out, since I want to keep my first feeling choices during my first playthrough.”
  • humor8 mentions

    The humor in the game is described as a mix of fun and cringeworthy moments, with some players finding it genuinely funny while others criticize its lack of engaging content. Characters like Jade are seen as cliché and humorless, contrasting with the game's potential for humor through its unique scenarios. Overall, opinions vary widely, with some enjoying the comedic elements and others feeling disappointed by the execution.

    • “It is funny, intense, saddening, and downright wonderful.”
    • “No joke you should totally buy this whenever it goes on sale, 10/10 it's really funny and cringy at the same time.”
    • “Obviously, this gets very boring after a while, something especially funny considering that the player character is explicitly handed a reality warping power from the outset.”
    • “Jade was the cliché, cringey, humorless person trying to get better at humor, and Inumi is your painfully average shy donut steel OC from Fur Affinity.”
    • “The jokes felt forced and often missed the mark, leaving me more confused than amused.”
    • “I expected clever wit, but instead, I was met with tired tropes and predictable punchlines.”
  • atmosphere4 mentions

    • “Kept me intrigued as to what was happening next, and the accompanying music just added to the atmosphere.”
    • “The story is very well written, and the characters were designed wonderfully with their looks and personalities. The music in the game was composed greatly, and it feeds into the atmosphere of the game for what is happening in the moment and the beginning of the scene.”
    • “This game has great art direction, an immense plot, and a fixed atmosphere.”
    • “I would love to have voice acting implemented into the game; it would give the characters their own voices and add to the atmosphere.”
