The story in Sujimon Quest is generally considered fun but lacks depth and coherence, with many reviewers noting its brevity and disjointed narrative. Players encounter a familiar JRPG fantasy setup, but the plot feels scattered and is often overshadowed by repetitive gameplay and exposition dumps. Overall, while the game offers some entertainment, its storytelling leaves much to be desired.
“Sujimon Quest is a pretty usual JRPG fantasy game where you go around killing stuff, helping folks, and saving the world.”
“And Gaaru's quest to catch 'em all begins!”
“Purely based on either mine or Kagura's synopsis, it's quite apparent that the story is, quite frankly, all over the place, which usually isn't an issue with these games, but it's definitely something to consider if you're someone who enjoys at least somewhat coherent storytelling.”
“The story flow is short, the dialog box cannot be hidden, the map is very small, monsters are reused, and most of the CG has nothing to do with the protagonist.”
“Purely based on either mine or Kagura's synopsis, it's quite apparent that the story is, quite frankly, all over the damn place, which usually isn't an issue with these horny games, but it's definitely a thing to consider if you're someone who enjoys at least somewhat coherent story.”
“However, the overall gameplay and story are disappointingly lackluster, where you simply travel from region to region defeating Sujimon and unlocking sex scenes, with the core plot of the game occasionally being fed to us through text dumps of lore.”

The graphics in the game are a mixed bag, featuring impressive artwork and character designs, particularly for named characters, but marred by inconsistencies in art styles and the reuse of assets. While the visuals are generally praised, some players note that the game suffers from quality issues typical of earlier releases from the developer. Overall, the artwork is considered stellar, though not without its flaws.
“The amazing artwork in these scenes and CGs aside, while Gaaru may be the poster girl for this game, she hardly gets any scenes herself.”
“I've put this in neutral as the artwork and designs of the other girls are still stellar nonetheless.”
“[b]Sujimon Quest[/b] truly shines when it comes to audio and visuals.”
“Except not always, just while randomly playing, I noticed a handful of graphic inconsistencies.”
“For some reason, only 'named' sujimon/characters getting piped are in the iconic black train art style, while 'generic' unnamed mob sujimon/characters are not, featuring a simpler art style.”
“This is probably the only time I'd say to wait to get it on sale unless you're a diehard fan of blacktrain's games/art style, as sujimon quest truly suffers quality-wise just from being one of their earlier releases.”

The gameplay of "Sujimon Quest," developed using RPG Maker VX Ace, is characterized as classic but feels rough and underdeveloped, reflecting its status as an earlier release from 2016. Players engage in a repetitive cycle of traveling between regions, battling sujimon, and unlocking scenes, while the overall experience is marred by a lackluster story and cumbersome text-heavy lore.
“Classic RPG Maker gameplay created with RPG Maker VX Ace.”
“Being one of Black Train's earlier releases (2016), Sujimon Quest feels much rougher around the edges in all departments: gameplay, art, and mechanics.”
“However, the overall gameplay and story are disappointingly lackluster, where you simply travel from region to region defeating Sujimon and unlocking scenes, with the core plot of the game occasionally being fed to us through text dumps of lore.”
“Mechanics are typical of RPG Maker games.”

The music in the game is considered mediocre, relying heavily on a standard free sound library, which results in repetitive and familiar tracks that may not offer a fresh experience.
“The sound is average; it feels like the usual free sound library was used extensively, so you'll probably hear the same songs you've heard a million times already.”
“The music lacks originality and variety, making it feel repetitive and uninspired.”
“The soundtrack is forgettable and doesn't enhance the gaming experience at all.”
