The game is described as excessively grindy, requiring significant farming to acquire basic gear, which can lead to a tedious and dull experience. Players note that without extensive grinding, the overall playtime is limited to about six hours, with repetitive backtracking to the inn for health recovery contributing to the monotony.
“This game is heavily grindy, so you will need to farm a lot to afford basic gear.”
“(Yeah, I cheated, but only because I figured there would be no way to escape an excessively tedious and dull grind besides that.)”
“Without spending too much time grinding, the game comes out to about six hours worth of playtime.”

Gameplay in "Monster Girl Fantasy" is described as simple yet serviceable, with some interesting relationship-building mechanics. However, players find certain aspects, like the grinding for money through an underdeveloped dungeon mechanic, to be frustrating and potentially off-putting for many. Overall, while the story and character design are appreciated, the gameplay may not resonate well with all players.
“There are relationship-building mechanics which are interesting.”
“The story is quite enjoyable, the characters look very nice, and the gameplay is simple, but serviceable.”
“The only way to grind for money through the early game was in what felt like an orphaned mechanic where you could run through the first dungeon and gather up to nine mushrooms to sell for a total of 45 gold.”
“In its current state, I honestly really want to like Monster Girl Fantasy, but I really feel that while I'm just barely able to tolerate the game, I fear that most other people will be turned off by the game due to its mechanics.”

The music and sound effects in the game appear to rely heavily on default assets from RPG Maker, suggesting a lack of originality in this aspect.
“I've not dabbled in RPG Maker that much, but I'm pretty sure all the music and sound effects, as well as most of the sprites, backgrounds, etc., are default assets.”
