The monetization aspect of this game has been criticized for being misleading, as it primarily serves as an advertisement rather than a full game. Users express frustration over the practice of publishing demos and ads as separate titles, which detracts from genuine game developers and clutters the marketplace. Overall, the monetization strategy is seen as exploitative, offering little value to players who deserve better than mere advertisements disguised as games.
“If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on YouTube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising.”
“While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful.”
“It's impossible for me to recommend this incorrectly published advertising spam to gamers; you deserve better than adverts.”

The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players criticizing it for being overly simplistic and lacking depth, likening it to mundane tasks rather than an engaging investigation simulation. Others appreciate the intriguing concept and visuals, suggesting that while the demo feels limited, there is potential for improvement in mechanics and content in a full release. Overall, the gameplay currently leans more towards a point-and-click experience rather than a true investigative challenge.
“I know that this is supposed to be a demo or prologue, but overall this is an amazing game. You work to find the plane and evidence to discover the reason the plane crashed. It's an amazing and challenging game; I recommend it, and it's basically free!”
“The details are just amazing and very well made by the developers! I hope they can add in the full release some bigger planes, some cutscenes showing how the accident happened, and maybe a little better mechanics when you assemble and disassemble the parts of the plane!”
“The gameplay really feels engaging and immersive, providing a unique experience that challenges players to think critically and solve problems effectively.”
“While an awesome and intriguing idea, this game looks more like a student's assignment. The gameplay is more like a point-and-click sequence regarding plane accident investigation, where the player is more like a paper pusher and manual worker. There is literally not a single brain cell needed to 'play' this, as the game does everything important itself. It only uses the player for mundane tasks like 'pick this, carry it 15m and drop' or 'stand here and aim there, then fake-take a picture,' which is hardly acceptable for an investigation sim game.”
“The gameplay really feels more like a kid's toy cube with different shaped holes, where the player must just place the correct pieces in the correct holes. It's good for a visual novel, but for me, it doesn't reach the minimum bar to be called a game.”
“I know that this is supposed to be a demo or prologue, but it could use a little more content. Overall, the gameplay feels lacking, and while the concept is interesting, it doesn't provide enough engagement to keep players invested.”

“Just finished the tutorial and first mission, loved it... I think this game has a ton of potential ahead of it.”
“The story feels recycled and uninspired, lacking any real depth or originality.”
“The narrative is disjointed and fails to engage the player, making it hard to care about the characters or their fates.”
“The plot twists are predictable, and the overall storyline feels like a missed opportunity for something more compelling.”
