  • story
    18 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story has received mixed reviews, with many players criticizing it for being shallow, disjointed, and lacking depth, particularly in the romantic routes. While some found the characters and initial premise engaging, they felt that the narrative was ultimately rushed and incomplete, leaving them confused and unsatisfied. Overall, the story seems to struggle with coherence and depth, failing to deliver a fulfilling experience for players seeking a rich narrative.

    • “An adorable story-rich game that was definitely worth the wait :) Relaxing and thought-provoking in a way that isn't too taxing.”
    • “Now, I liked most of the characters, and the storyline seemed interesting (at least, what I could see of it).”
    • “Interesting story, nothing quite like being a competing mage a la WWE lol.”
    • “When I started playing the game, I thought it was great, but now that I've played through it, I can say it was a waste of my money. The game is full of bugs and glitches, and the plot is non-existent. I would not recommend.”
    • “Unfortunately, because of the sheer amount of game-breaking bugs and the rushed story, I can't recommend this game.”
    • “But then I finished my first route and only felt it was too short and lacking depth, like half the story was missing.”
  • stability
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability has been criticized due to frequent bugs and glitches, particularly a recurring issue where the game freezes during character endings, rendering it unplayable for many users. While some players enjoyed the experience and connected with the characters, the technical problems overshadowed the gameplay, leading to disappointment and frustration. Overall, the stability issues significantly detract from the game's enjoyment and progression.

    • “There are no glitches that stop you from progressing.”
    • “The game runs smoothly without any crashes or interruptions.”
    • “I appreciate the consistent performance; it makes for a much more enjoyable experience.”
    • “Unfortunately, I ran into what appears to be a not uncommon bug: every time I get to a character's ending phase and go to tell my aunt about it, the game freezes.”
    • “Unfortunately, once I was actually able to, I found it unplayable due to bugs - the game freezes at a specific point, and while you can go into the menu and save and such, it won't progress any further, and this has happened in all four routes that I tried.”
    • “When I started playing the game I thought it was great but now that I've played through it I can say it was a waste of my money, the game is full of bugs and glitches and the plot is non-existent, would not recommend.”
  • graphics
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game features a simplistic yet appealing art style with a soft color palette, which many players find enjoyable. However, the significant inconsistency between the in-game graphics and the character CGs—each created by different artists—can disrupt the overall experience, particularly during key moments like character endings. This disparity has led to mixed feelings among users, as it detracts from the otherwise cohesive aesthetic.

    • “When you look at screenshots and the trailer, you can see a simplistic but rather pleasant art style and a soft color palette.”
    • “I love Aunt Jean and the aesthetics are great!”
    • “Imagine my surprise when I reached my first character ending (it was Bowie, by the way) and his first (and only!) CG came up... in an entirely different art style.”
    • “Moreover, the art style difference was so immense that it totally broke the mood of the said good ending.”
    • “Inconsistencies between in-game art style and CG art style rarely co-exist well in visual novels, and considering that every CG in this game was drawn by a different artist, every new CG caused a significant shock.”
  • gameplay
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay features a unique setting and diverse characters, but some mechanics feel unpolished and confusing, detracting from the overall experience. While the fighting aspect lacks depth, there are hopes for a more engaging romance element.

    • “The setting and mechanics are cool, the characters are diverse and interesting, and I was a Kickstarter backer.”
    • “The gameplay is engaging and offers a unique experience that keeps you coming back for more.”
    • “The combat system is intuitive and allows for a variety of strategies, making each encounter feel fresh and exciting.”
    • “Some of the game mechanics were, for a lack of a better word, wonky.”
    • “They are not bugs, and they didn't influence the gameplay, but they made the game seem less polished.”
    • “It kind of appeared with no explanation, and I felt a bit confused even though I've seen similar mechanics before.”
  • replayability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the game's replayability lacking, as switching magic classes results in minimal changes, primarily limited to dialogue variations. This limited variation diminishes the incentive to restart the game, leading to a perception of low overall replay value.

    • “The only thing that changes if you decide to try out a different magic class is a couple of lines, and frankly speaking, there’s no point or replay value in restarting the game just to see some characters’ greetings change.”
    • “This also takes away greatly from the replay value.”
    • “The only thing that changes if you decide to try out a different magic class is a couple of lines, and frankly speaking, there’s no point or replay value in restarting the game just to see some characters’ greetings change from 'Oh cool, you are also a modification mage!'”
    • “I'm not basing this off of replayability; I mean how long it takes from beginning to end of one route.”
  • emotional
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players note that while the game allows for flirtation with various characters, each one carries significant emotional baggage, making the romantic interactions feel complex and often devoid of traditional romance.

    • “You can flirt a little with all the characters during the course of the game, but every - e v e r y - character has some emotional baggage, and thus there is nothing romantic about 'romancing' them.”
