The gameplay is generally described as easy and accessible, with a mix of management sim, visual novel, and mini-games, but it suffers from repetitiveness and a lack of depth. While some players find it fun and engaging, many express disappointment over the limited interaction and underdeveloped mechanics, leading to a short and somewhat boring experience. Overall, the game has potential but falls short in variety and integration of its thematic elements.
“Fun and relaxing gameplay, banger h-scene (some are animated / interactive).”
“Amazing quality and fun gameplay.”
“The gameplay expands as well, as you are given new minigames, challenges and other side content which are all immensely better, being fun to play.”
“Game is too short, story is boring and overall gameplay and mechanics are underdeveloped.”
“It's kind of a shame that there's so little interaction for the main gameplay loop and not too much content in general as the game had the potential to be 'really good' instead of just 'good enough for the price'.”
“The starting gameplay is generic enough to make you question why they even bothered making a game when it adds so little of its own.”

The game's story is generally considered enjoyable with good world-building and character backstories, though it suffers from brevity and a lack of personal closure for character arcs. While some players appreciate the likable characters and their individual narratives, others find the relationships feel abrupt and underdeveloped, leading to a sense of missed opportunities. Overall, the plot is described as average, with a desire for more depth and variety in storytelling to enhance the experience.
“Having finished the game, the world building and story is very good.”
“The story behind each character is nice.”
“The story behind the overarching game is nice.”
“Game is too short, story is boring and overall gameplay and mechanics are underdeveloped.”
“The main story is alright, it has clear goals, but there are no specific character endings, so for me it doesn't feel like it has personal closure. What happens to each character in the end? Do they stay in an open relationship like this?”
“Right now, it feels like the relationship story is too abrupt, because we don't know anything about the girls when we hire them. Then suddenly, after we give them a gift and enter their relationship story, it feels like we missed some kind of event.”
