The game's story is a mixed bag, with many players appreciating its connection to the original "Soul Land" novels and manga, but criticizing its execution, which often feels confusing, poorly translated, and lacking depth. While some enjoy the nostalgic elements and the ability to make choices, others find the gameplay repetitive and the storyline unengaging, leading to a sense of frustration and boredom. Overall, the narrative is seen as a weak point, with calls for improvements in storytelling and gameplay mechanics to enhance player experience.
“I really like how they make the main storyline into a manga in the game.”
“You will feel like reading the book again, but this time you are in it and you can make different choices without straying too far from the main storyline.”
“They manage to keep the story the same as the novels, so good job on localization.”
“The gameplay is literally just tapping buttons, the 'story,' if one can call it that, is hard to follow, there are numerous grammatical errors, and the game can actually mislead you on some things.”
“Boring gameplay where you just tap on a button to 'progress' the story, which by the way is more boring than the manga (go read that instead), any combat decision is non-existent, graphics feel like back in the Windows 98 period and something you would expect from a browser-based MMO, and that's being generous.”
“The story is very hard to follow, though.”

“This is literally a cash grab.”
“The ads made it look like it would be interesting to play, but that cannot be farther from the truth.”
