The story has received mixed reviews, with some praising its intriguing plot and character development, while others find it stale or lacking depth. Many players appreciate the engaging dialogue and pacing, though some criticize the execution, including inconsistent storytelling and poor voice acting.

“The story is amazing, the puzzles aren't difficult.”

“Reversion - the meeting is a really nice all-around game, puzzles keep you thinking and the story keeps you hooked.”
“If I had to guess, they just wanted to put girls in military outfits, make the story happen in Argentina, and take a few jabs at 'the man', but it is very stale overall.”
“The art style is lackluster, the voice acting is atrocious, and the storyline made absolutely no sense.”
“Just like the demo, chapter 2 is also a very short and incomplete story: it takes about just 1-2 hours of gameplay to complete, then you'll have to wait indefinitely for chapter 3 to be released.”

The emotional impact of the game is undermined by subpar voice acting, with only the main character delivering a convincing performance, while the rest come off as awkward and lacking genuine emotion.
