The game's story has been criticized for lacking coherence and depth, failing to meet the expectations set by other renowned JRPGs. Players have reported frustrating bugs that can disrupt the narrative experience, alongside a subpar save system that forces them to replay sections. Despite these issues, some reviewers see potential in the story and recommend keeping an eye on the game for its price.
“It has some great things going for it, and I can't wait to see the whole story. While I had some hiccups, for the price, I recommend keeping an eye on this game.”
“I really wanted to like this game, and I hate leaving games unfinished, but when something is tagged as JRPG and story-rich, I'm expecting something along the lines of Final Fantasy, Sen no Kiseki, Persona, or the Tales franchise's caliber.”
“I felt like I was playing a mobile game to pass the time, not playing an actual story-rich JRPG that I can immerse myself in.”
“The storyline feels all over the place and gameplay is trivialized a lot.”
“The game has bugs that can lock you in the story, and you can't do anything about it.”
