The gameplay is characterized by its simplicity and quick completion time, often taking only 15-20 minutes to achieve 100%. However, many users find it lacking in depth and challenge, with easy puzzles and minimal interaction, leading to a perception of boredom and pointlessness. While the art and animations are praised, the overall gameplay experience is deemed unsatisfactory, primarily serving as a means to access the gallery rather than providing engaging gameplay.

“A very interesting storyline, as well as amazing game mechanics.”
“Puzzle mechanic is fun, good art.”
“The gameplay was extremely simple, no difficulty option and the puzzle is kind of too easy. There is no point in winning the game, no point in finishing each level, and definitely not the best NSFW I've ever played.”
“Art work is amazing, but the gameplay is rather lame.”
“The whole concept of the puzzles is fun and executed well, but it lacks much gameplay, and is mostly just high-quality ero animation.”
