The story of the game is a mix of humor, interesting characters, and a unique plot that includes elements like gender-bending and magical forces, set against a backdrop of absurdity and detective work.

- “Honestly, one of the best visual novel stories I've ever read, and I've read a lot of them.”
- “The execution of the storytelling here is brilliant!”
- “The story never takes itself too seriously, and overall is just a fun ride to sit through.”
- “I'd rather not be given a choice and have a well-told straight romance story than to be told that I can have a gay romance when that seems to not really be the case.”
- “Secondly, this visual novel is kinetic, or at least mostly kinetic; you don't make any real decisions over the course of the story, you simply click through each line in a linear fashion.”

The music in the game receives mixed reviews; while some players praise the soundtrack as enjoyable and well-integrated, others find it basic and reminiscent of stock music.

- “Great music, fun dialogue! I hope the devs keep making great content.”

- “The soundtrack is quite basic.”
- “It seems to be largely stock music, and it was probably the weakest part of the game for me.”
- “Since there's no speaking outside of the animated sequences, you could easily play with the speakers off and your own music on.”
