The story is generally considered weak, with many users finding it uninteresting, confusing, and filled with illogical elements. Despite an intriguing blend of modern and fantasy themes, the plot comes across as pretentious and poorly contextualized, detracting from the overall experience.
- “The whole thing is tied in an odd reality sliding story in which the modern world and some odd fantasy elements get tied together in a sorcery, good against evil theme.”
- “The story line is a little pretentious, but it's a good point and click game.”
- “Also some of the puzzles are insanely hard especially the one with the 12 pictures you should match to a story that opens the door to the cupboard with the pouch and sand inside it.”
- “Story is not good and there are many games with better graphics.”
- “Guilty of item chain reaction, pixel hunting and loose plot contextualization.”
- “It was nice in the beginning but the story is boring and the clicking is buggy most of the time especially on the portal.”

The graphics are considered subpar compared to many other games, with only a slight improvement noted in "Pahelika: Revelations" over its predecessor. Overall, the visuals are viewed as weak and unimpressive.
- “[i]Pahelika: Revelations[/i] is a step up from [i]Secret Legends[/i] in that it has better graphics and more varied puzzles (only one jigsaw this time), but it's still pretty bad.”

Grinding is characterized by repetitive, tedious tasks and puzzles that feel outdated and laborious, offering minimal narrative or dramatic reward for the effort invested.
- “TL;DR: Dated walk-and-click gameplay in small chapters with increasingly tedious tasks to reverse engineer for progression.”
- “Not to mention that the sliding puzzle is just one in a series of nearly equally demanding and tedious puzzles, all for a little bit of new-age writing and little dramatic payoff.”
