The game features a fun and quirky concept with engaging AI interactions and humorous moments, making it enjoyable to play with friends.
The art style is bright and expressive, contributing to a lively atmosphere that enhances the overall experience.
The developers are responsive to player feedback and have made improvements to the game, such as increasing the number of free tickets available for gameplay.

The ticket system severely limits gameplay, restricting players to only a few matches per day unless they pay for additional tickets, which feels predatory.
The AI's conversational abilities can be inconsistent and lack depth, leading to repetitive and shallow interactions during gameplay.
Many players feel that the monetization model is overly aggressive, with microtransactions for basic gameplay features, making it feel more like a pay-to-win scenario.

The monetization model of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with many players criticizing the reliance on microtransactions and subscription fees that hinder gameplay. Users express a desire for a more player-friendly approach, such as a one-time purchase or improved free-to-play options, arguing that the current system feels exploitative and detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game. While some acknowledge recent improvements, the consensus is that significant changes are needed to enhance player experience and satisfaction.
- “I don't mind throwing a little bit of money at a game that's fun with friends (this has board game appeal), but in its current early state, it's expecting a bit much for people to pour heaps of money into this via microtransactions.”
- “If the devs can somehow straighten out the dialogue's generation settings and ease up on the extremely limiting microtransactions (i.e. create a way for free-to-play players to regularly grind money or something, or at least let them solo message characters without having to pay for every message), then the game would really shine.”
- “Except it has the worst monetization system of all time...”
- “However, the monetization model sucks; it's impossible to match and actually play the game.”
- “Just make the game cost €5 instead of these heinous microtransactions that completely ruin the fun.”
