gameplay

The gameplay of this visual novel is criticized for its lack of engaging mechanics, relying heavily on poorly written dialogue that detracts from the experience. Additionally, the absence of essential features like a CG gallery further diminishes its appeal.
- “As a visual/interactive novel, this doesn't feature any notable gameplay; it's just a lot of clicking through badly written dialogue that would never have been accepted or published in print. This poses the question, 'How did something this badly written end up on Steam?'”
- “A gallery for CGs doesn't exist, along with other game mechanics that are kind of indispensable for a visual novel nowadays.”
grinding

Users find the grinding aspect of visual novels and e-books tedious, likening the experience to a frustratingly slow reading process where each sentence requires a click to progress, detracting from the enjoyment of the narrative.
- “Visual novels and e-books can be tedious at best. Imagine the best novel you've ever read, whether it's 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy', '2001: A Space Odyssey', or even 'Twilight' (if you have terrible taste in literature). Now, translate that into a format where the words dribble out, and you have to click your mouse every time you want to read the next sentence, instead of just turning the pages.”
- “The grinding in this game feels endless and repetitive, making it hard to stay engaged. It often feels like I'm just going through the motions without any real sense of progress.”
- “I find the grinding mechanics to be a chore rather than a challenge. It detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game and makes it feel more like a job than a fun experience.”
