The story centers on a freshly divorced man navigating complex and taboo relationships with his sister and daughter, blending themes of loss, betrayal, and family dynamics in a slow-paced, emotionally driven narrative. While praised for its character depth and emotional moments, the story is often criticized for awkward pacing, numerous grammar errors, abrupt and incomplete ending, and minimal impact of player choices, leaving it feeling unfinished and unevenly executed. Fans of slow-burning, adult-themed drama may find it engaging, but flaws in writing and translation hinder full immersion.
- “You will be happy to hear that this is a really good story: it was written with believable characters, described with deep personalities and their own distinctive charm.”
- “The secondary characters, unlike in a lot of other visual novels, aren't there to provide more sexual interest for the main character, but actually contribute to the story.”
- “Making Memories is a story about loss and recovery, which I was excited to experience.”
- “English is used quite badly and the story has no proper ending; it just ends abruptly and will be continued in another game.”
- “Story is decent, though it gets very rushed in the end. Ninety-five percent of the game you play at a slow pace, you get used to it and then bam... so many events, characters, and all of this during a short period of time, it's just overwhelming.”
- “The story is filled with grammar errors and sometimes the story just does not flow well.”

- “You have music to listen to while you play, but it is limited and you won't experience some content until closer to the end of the game.”
