    The story has been described as engaging and thought-provoking, with a mix of interesting twists and philosophical themes that resonate with players. However, many reviewers noted issues with pacing, particularly a lengthy and repetitive epilogue that detracts from the overall experience, as well as grammatical errors that hinder immersion. Despite these criticisms, the combination of a compelling narrative, beautiful soundtrack, and well-developed character psychology has left a positive impression on many players.

    • “When the story is being wrapped up, you think it's about to end, but no, it goes into an epilogue that lasts about as long as the actual story of the game, and it's incredibly repetitive and boring.”
    • “It goes from being a show-and-not-tell sort of story to a never-ending, poorly written philosophical rant in which the author really wants to drive the point home.”
