The gameplay is a unique blend of visual novel elements and massage mechanics, offering a fun and humorous experience that relies heavily on controller use for an immersive feel. While the concept is engaging, some players feel it could benefit from more character variety and detailed mechanics, and those less interested in the massage aspect may want to wait for a sale due to the game's brevity.
“An amazing idea, mixing genuinely funny visual novel gameplay and writing with soothing (mostly) massages.”
