The story is primarily delivered through dialogue scenes reminiscent of visual novels, but many players find it bland and overshadowed by the game's menu-driven mechanics and management sim elements. While the premise is intriguing and the environmental storytelling enhances the setting, the tedious quest management and lack of engaging combat detract from the overall narrative experience. Players express a desire for a more streamlined approach to quests and character interactions to improve pacing and immersion in the story.
- “It is, at its core, a game about interacting with systems to make numbers go up and progress a story.”
- “Still early in, but the story is intriguing, and I like how the premise of the gameplay is actually fully explained by the main character's ability.”
- “At first, I was a bit worried because in a world of adventurers and multiple adventurer guilds, all I could think of was 'man, I just want to be out there adventuring too, in a party and having fun.' But through the way of the story and an ability your character gains, you get to have the best of both worlds.”
- “I think I can best describe it as a heavily menu-driven, business-style management sim, with story delivered through dialog scenes akin to a visual novel.”
- “The story is pretty bland too.”
- “Lots of things like that which take your attention away from the story, characters, and interactions, making this more of a work management game with good art in between.”

The gameplay of this management sim is characterized by a steep learning curve and a lack of clear mechanics, leading to frustration for players. While it offers an addictive loop once understood, many find the town gameplay tedious and the battle commands poorly designed. Additionally, clunky menus and bugs detract from the overall experience, despite some appreciation for character customization and the intriguing story premise.
- “It's quite addicting once you actually understand how it works and get into a gameplay loop.”
- “Still early in but the story is intriguing, and I like how the premise of the gameplay is actually fully explained by the main character's ability.”
- “Gameplay-wise, it's not all menus; you get to choose your male or female character and name them. You get to move around and do actions as your own player, which I really like because a lot of games that may have this 'oh you are a strategist/commander style person' don't do that for you.”
- “This game is purely, and I mean purely, a management sim with more JRPG art than JRPG mechanics.”
- “- poorly introduces you to the full mechanics of your base and throws you right into the action.”
- “Clunky gameplay; the menus are difficult to understand sometimes, and it's not clear what the point of upgrades are. Bugs aplenty.”

Players find the grinding mechanics in the game to be tedious and frustrating, particularly due to cumbersome UI and excessive menu navigation. Actions like farming and mining lack automation, requiring repetitive button presses that disrupt pacing. Additionally, temporary buffs and resource requirements for upgrades contribute to a sense of monotony in the gameplay experience.
- “This game is not a new take on the Rune Factory formula or an RPG dungeon crawler with farming, fishing, and mining mini-games.”
- “Instead, it's the most dull and tedious system possible.”
- “Too much menuing; the fact you can't do multiple quests without going to the map first is really tedious and kills much of the pacing for me, with lots of button pressing involved.”
