OMNIMUS features a compelling dystopian narrative with well-developed characters and an engaging storyline that keeps players guessing.
The game includes unique mechanics like a Rorschach test and mini-games, enhancing the overall experience and immersion.
For its price, the game offers a solid experience with good music and visuals, making it a worthwhile purchase for fans of sci-fi visual novels.

The game is quite short, lasting only about 2-3 hours, which may leave players wanting more content and depth.
Many choices in the game feel like illusions of choice, leading to a linear experience where significant events occur regardless of player decisions.
There are several typos and grammatical errors present in the text, which can detract from the overall polish and immersion of the game.

The game presents a dystopian narrative set in a future dominated by corporations, where disabled individuals face severe oppression and psychological testing. While the story is engaging and well-crafted, with complex characters and social commentary, players note its linearity and limited choices, which can detract from the overall experience. Despite these criticisms, the game is praised for its tension and thought-provoking themes, making it a worthwhile experience for fans of sci-fi storytelling.
- “It is made with great care due to its story and characters, and this is where you can see the difference with other similar products on the store.”
- “In the end, the author does an amazing job with this story he's trying to tell, and manages in only a couple of hours, along with some interesting mechanics such as a Rorschach test and some 'memory' meta-games, to convey a message about the dangers and the possibilities that being virtually immortal could bring us.”
- “For the most part, it offers only an illusion of choice, with the story being quite linear and most major events happening regardless of the protagonist's actions.”
- “The game does a great job at sustaining the tension and feeling of uncertainty – also because there are no simple good guys and bad guys in the story, with all major actors having their own agendas, potentially conflicting with the protagonist's best interest.”
- “It'd be nice to see the more subtle Telltale-style choices that have more unknown effects, rather than having the choices basically explain how they impact the story very obviously.”

The music in the game is highly praised for its quality and originality, enhancing the overall immersive experience. Composed by the author, the soundtrack fits the futuristic theme and avoids the pitfalls of generic stock music, with standout tracks including a unique Russian song for the ending credits. Overall, the music significantly contributes to the game's appeal and atmosphere.
- “The soundtrack is also well done.”
- “In the end though, this was a surprisingly cool experience and a really nice looking/sounding one at that – the visuals were really consistent, with UI and intermission screens well-stylized as a VR interface, while the music fitted the futuristic feel of the game.”
- “The music is a really welcome addition, since if you're an avid visual novel reader, you might get taken out of your immersion if you notice stock or royalty-free music while you're reading; this will not be the case with Omnimus, because it features some tracks made by the author, and they're really neat. There's even a song in Russian for the ending credits roll.”
