The game's story is widely praised for its depth, emotional impact, and engaging characters, with many players describing it as beautifully written and immersive. However, the monetization system, which requires players to spend in-game currency to progress, has drawn criticism for making the experience feel tedious and limiting. Overall, while the narrative is compelling and well-crafted, the restrictions on gameplay due to the coin system detract from the enjoyment for some players.
- “The story is beautifully written, all the characters are unique and memorable in their own ways, and the music is fantastic.”
- “The storyline is amazing, I'm glad you guys added 8 gold per ad, I'm happy that I can support this game by watching ads and gaining gold from it.”
- “I love the story and everything about it.”
- “Nothing you do impacts the story, despite the first ten or so minutes of playtime and UI implying otherwise.”
- “It seems more of a mildly interactive story rather than a game because you can't impact the events in any way.”

The monetization system in the game has received significant criticism for its reliance on ads and limited coin rewards, which restricts player progression and enjoyment. Many users express frustration over the long wait times for ad resets, glitches preventing ad playback, and the overall feeling that the game is designed to push players towards spending money rather than allowing for a free-to-play experience. While some appreciate the option to watch ads for coins, the consensus is that the current system is overly restrictive and detracts from the overall gameplay experience.
- “The only frustrating thing is you have to wait for days to watch ads in order to get coins, unless you pay for them - which I clearly can't afford since I'm playing a free game.”
- “It's a very interesting narrative game, but with one flaw: it's impossible to play freely. I don't mind doing a couple of ads if I can play at my own pace, but the coins obtainable freely are very limited. If you want to play this better, just buy the coins; it's pretty much a subscription-oriented game, not a free game.”
- “Very disappointed... you are given 60 coins in the beginning and they run out very quickly. You have no way to play the next level because you need more coins, and there's only one way to get coins, which is through ads that don't even work.”
