The story in the game is generally considered weak and serves primarily as a framework for the puzzles, with many reviewers describing it as basic, poorly written, and lacking depth. While it features a simple narrative about Princess Arianna trying to save her kingdom, the execution is criticized for its lack of voice acting and additional content, leading players to focus more on gameplay than the storyline itself. Overall, the consensus is that the game is better suited for those interested in puzzles rather than a compelling narrative.

grinding

Players find the grinding aspect of the game, particularly the match-3 puzzles, to be excessively tedious and frustrating, often leading to a sense of endlessness. While some appreciate the option to switch to a different gameplay style, the overwhelming number of match-3 challenges detracts from the overall enjoyment, making the experience feel laborious rather than engaging.
- “Now that I have continued on, I will reiterate that the match-3 puzzles, which involve many, many matches to achieve some small goal, are enormously tedious, and there doesn't seem to be any end to them!”
- “An absolutely garbage game... the match-3 sections are too numerous and often tedious, and you'll either spend hours on a puzzle before realizing the game stuck its pieces in a position where they can't be moved at all, or you'll just realize it's faster to activate a speed hack and skip everything to death.”
- “The music wasn't bad, but because I enjoy hidden object scenes more than match-3, I found the game a little bit tedious.”
