The story starts off engaging and imaginative, drawing players in with a captivating opening. However, it tends to lose focus as the game progresses, with some users noting issues with storytelling quality and language. Overall, while the concept is appealing, the execution may leave some players wanting more.
“I really love this game! It is fun and easy to play, and the story is very imaginative. I love it.”
“Imagine playing Pokémon but with a deeper story, and the minimon follow you. You can also fight; it doesn't have to be the monsters that fight. The opening to the story captivates you right off the bat. I can't wait for the final product.”
“The story is poorly told, with broken English and a lack of coherence.”
“The opening to the story captivates you right off the bat, but it feels like a missed opportunity for deeper storytelling.”

While some users note improvements since its initial release, many feel it remains one of the most broken games they've encountered, especially in comparison to other titles like Monster Crown. Overall, the game's stability is a significant concern for players.
“It's honestly the buggiest and most broken game I've played since Monster Crown, but at least Monster Crown is still being worked on, while Minimon has been abandoned.”

“The graphics are much worse than the screenshots.”
“The animations are gross, the graphics are not good, the actual gameplay is pretty bugged, and the UI system is nonintuitive.”
“The graphics are terrible, the animations are worse, the controls are awkward and disjointed, the sound comes and goes as it pleases, the dialogue reads as if it's been run through Google Translate, there's no documentation readily available, menus haphazardly transition or disappear altogether at random, scripted NPC behavior often sends them running to walls or vanishing mid-sentence, there's intense lag (even in single player!), and so on.”
