- “Truly massive props to Inusuku for achieving something that too many h-game developers have failed to do: create fun gameplay.”

The optimization of the game is criticized for significant stuttering issues and a frustrating control scheme, which detracts from the overall experience. Players find the combat uninspired and the dialogue, particularly that of the main character, to be cringeworthy and poorly executed, further diminishing enjoyment.
- “Way too much of a stuttering creep.”
- “The combat is bland, the h-scenes are more cringy than arousing, but the dialogue of the main character is easily the worst part, with his dialogue being almost entirely cringe, stuttering every time he thinks of doing or saying something pervy to one of the many female characters. The strange control scheme they went with makes this more of an embarrassment to play than the fact that it's an h-game.”
