The game's story features a lore-rich narrative centered around an amnesiac protagonist on a quest to assist princesses in saving the world, involving themes of seven kingdoms and prophecies. While the plot is engaging enough for a budget title, the storytelling suffers from uneven pacing and a choppy translation, making it less sophisticated than some players might hope. Overall, it provides a decent backdrop for gameplay, though it lacks depth and polish.
- “The story puts you in the shoes of an amnesiac protagonist who is quickly involved in a grand adventure to assist princesses in saving the world.”
- “Features a somewhat choppy but decent enough translation - you can understand the gist of each sentence and the writing in terms of its content is telling a great detailed and lore-rich story.”
- “The story is fun.”
- “There is something about seven kingdoms, seven princesses, prophecies, missing officials, etc. Not a terrible story, but don't expect anything really sophisticated from a budget game.”
- “Too bad there is no voice acting during the story.”
- “The plot is alright under these expectations, but the story-telling is just so uneven.”

- “I spent way more time grinding than necessary, so it took me a bit longer than expected.”
- “It is, however, very grindy.”
- “Because the game is so extreme, no strategy other than grinding is viable.”

stability

The game experiences stability issues, particularly with unit interactions, where friendly units can become glitched when positioned on top of enemy units. This glitch causes the game to misidentify the enemy as friendly, allowing it to attack during its turn, leading to frustrating gameplay inconsistencies.
- “One of my friendly units ended up on top of an enemy unit, causing a glitch where the game mistakenly identifies it as friendly. This allows the glitched enemy to attack during its turn, which is incredibly frustrating.”
- “The game frequently crashes during critical moments, making it nearly impossible to progress without losing progress.”
- “I encountered numerous bugs that caused the game to freeze, forcing me to restart multiple times and ruining the overall experience.”
