The game's story is criticized for being short, shallow, and lacking meaningful depth, with only a handful of linear quests that fail to engage players. Many reviewers noted that the narrative feels disconnected from the gameplay, leading to an abrupt ending and a lack of character development. Overall, while some found the visuals appealing, the story was deemed unsatisfactory and not worth the price.
- “Twelve is the older member of the team, was a field agent like the others but now is the leader of the group and the one who provides information on the missions; almost all the time she is calm, serene, and never loses patience, at least until you try to ask her about her past when she was in active duty.”
- “Liked the 'plot'; the story was predictable but alright.”
- “The story is only linear and involves maybe 4-5 quests for the main story.”
- “The story is very short and shallow; it’s over before you know it.”
- “The latter is ptc’s biggest failure: gameplay, story, and lewd don’t match with each other at all - even when measured against the rather low standards in this genre.”
- “Not only is the main campaign too short, but the postgame is very disappointing, and the story is nothing to write home about.”

Overall, the gameplay has been criticized for its lack of depth and coherence, often feeling minimal and disjointed from the narrative. While some players find moments of mindless fun or brief puzzles, many express frustration with poorly integrated mechanics that disrupt the flow and enjoyment of the game. The reliance on repetitive actions and contrived gameplay elements detracts from the overall experience, leaving it feeling second-rate compared to other titles in the genre.
- “Gameplay is simple-- don't touch enemies or floor hazards.”
- “Occasionally the game switches things up for a simple puzzle-room or a shooting section, which break up the monotony a bit, but they aren't really any more interesting than the core gameplay.”
- “Phantom Thief Celiana has stripped the RPG out of RPG Maker, keeping only the real-time action mechanics.”
- “The content is minimal and the gameplay is even more lacking.”
- “In this game, the gimmick actually sabotages the core gameplay itself when it forces you to start a mission from scratch.”
- “The game adds an inventory system and a 'hideout' to try and add some depth to the product; but that doesn't make the fundamental gameplay any less miserable.”
