The story of the game is a complex blend of isekai elements and a corruption-based narrative, featuring a protagonist named Aura who navigates a fantasy world while grappling with moral degeneration.

Overall, the game is noted for its well-crafted twists and integration of gameplay mechanics with the storyline, making it a standout in the RPG genre despite its challenges.

- “Contains thrilling twists, fun characters, powerful moments of triumph, and meaningful choices throughout the plot and gameplay.”

The gameplay of "Star Knightess Aura" is characterized by a unique blend of standard RPG mechanics and innovative corruption systems that challenge players to balance resource management with moral choices. While some players appreciate the depth and strategic elements, others criticize the combat design and pacing, noting that the game can be punishing and requires careful planning. Overall, it offers a rewarding experience for those willing to engage with its mechanics, though it may not appeal to everyone due to its complexity and the integration of adult themes.

- “The gameplay is so good, I've gone back multiple times just to see how efficiently I can get things done.”
- “A big part of what makes Star Knightess Aura enjoyable to me is that the game is pretty difficult, and by engaging in the corruption mechanic you can actually make your life a lot easier if managed right.”
- “Overall, this is a poorly designed game with undisciplined writing, terrible combat design, an unexplored corruption mechanic, and a penchant for gleefully wasting the player's time with stupid bullshit.”

Reviews indicate that the game avoids traditional grinding for levels, items, and gold, focusing instead on strategic planning and resource management. While this design choice eliminates tedious experience farming, it also limits player power progression, making encounters more challenging without the option to overpower enemies through grinding. Overall, players find the mechanics engaging, turning potential grind into meaningful decision-making rather than a monotonous slog.
- “While this is a pro in the sense there's no grinding, it also means that you cannot level up to outscale the enemies you're facing, unless you leave them alive and return to an earlier area once you are much stronger and they no longer pose a meaningful threat.”
- “It's a horrible, tedious slog where even the real-world corruption plot doesn't progress because it's waiting for you to finish quests in the fantasy world.”
- “As such, XP, gold, and player power are quite limited and cannot be increased by grinding.”
- “There is no way to farm or overpower yourself like you would by killing and farming monsters.”
