The game's story has received mixed reviews, with some players appreciating its potential and intriguing elements, while others criticize it for being inconsistent, poorly executed, and lacking depth. Many found the translation issues detracted from the experience, and the overall presentation was deemed low effort, leading to a disconnect between the narrative and gameplay. Despite these flaws, a few players noted that the story and clue system were redeeming features.
“Amazing story”
“The English translation is okay, and although there were a few pieces of dialogue still in Russian and some incorrectly translated words, the plotline was comprehensible overall.”
“This game looks really bad, but the story and how you find clues is nice.”
“I expected more... the game lacks story, decent instructions, interactions.”
“I couldn't get into the story, and it starts with just lots and lots of text, and how the game looks is just really low effort considering that most of it just plays in one small elevator-like room.”
“When you start this, you think 'huh, it's an alright game', but as you keep playing you can't help noticing what an inconsistent mess the storyline is, how weird and forgettable the characters are, and that soon the whole game just ends abruptly without explaining anything.”

The monetization strategy of Koyotis Studio/Kuko has been heavily criticized for relying on asset flips and pre-made game templates, leading to accusations of unethical practices and cash grabs. Users describe their games as low-quality shovelware, often released in bulk with misleading reviews, suggesting a pattern of exploiting others' work for profit. Overall, the monetization approach is viewed as a detrimental practice that contributes to the saturation of the market with subpar titles.
“Trying to get paid for someone else's game templates and assets... at best, this is shovelware; at worst, it's a scam and cash grab.”
“Koyotis Studio/Kuko have shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab, through this account or through closely linked/alternate accounts.”
“This is just cash grab pollution.”
