The story of Rose Guns Days is a fast-paced, standalone narrative set in an alternate post-occupation Japan, featuring a well-developed cast and strong character writing that captivates players. Unlike Ryukishi's previous works, it offers a linear, action-filled plot spanning several years and seasons, with engaging combat mini-games that are optional to play. While the story ends on a compelling cliffhanger, full appreciation may require waiting for all four seasons to be released.
- “The story is linear, so there's only one ending.”
- “A few choices are presented in regards to where you can go in Tokyo, but the order doesn't affect the overall story's direction.”
- “Since this is an episodic series, it might be decisive for those who would have liked the entire story.”

The music in the game is praised for its great variety, ranging from exciting, action-packed tracks to moodier, suspenseful pieces that enhance the experience. While the soundtrack is solid with many standout tracks, some fans miss the inclusion of zero-time-stamps (ZTS) music, especially those familiar with the Umineko series. Overall, the soundtrack effectively supports the game's atmosphere despite the lack of voice acting.
- “With the music, the tracks have a great variety from the exciting, action-packed fight to the slightly scary mood that keeps you on your toes.”
- “The soundtrack is quite solid and has numerous fabulous standout tracks.”
- “There is a varied soundtrack accompanying the mini-games, although no voice acting.”

- “The story and gameplay are lots of fun, and achievements are just more of a fun bonus to me.”
- “As for the gameplay, the story is linear, so there's only one ending.”
- “I was pleasantly surprised to learn that there's some gameplay here although, as I mentioned earlier, it's entirely skippable, so you can just enjoy the story itself.”

The graphics feature well-drawn and colored sprites with slightly blurry, photographic backgrounds that create a distinctive atmosphere. While there are some violent scenes, they are not visually graphic. A minor issue is the occasional art style clash due to multiple character artists, but it is not overly distracting.
- “The sprites are drawn and colored well, and I like the slightly blurry, photographic backgrounds.”
- “Finally, considering RGD had multiple character artists, there is a bit of art style clashing going on but nothing too distracting.”
