The story of "Tibetan Quest" is generally viewed as lackluster and predictable, often criticized for its superficiality and cultural inaccuracies.

- “The story mixes ancient mythologies with regular people, making it easy to step into the shoes of the main character.”

- “The cutscene animations are just great, something I really liked, adding an extra layer to this game and its story, which is awesome.”
- “The story is plain and without any detail; the graphics are good, and there are even collectible items in the scenes for extra achievements.”

The gameplay of "Tibetan Quest: Beyond the World's End" is characterized as fairly standard for hidden object games, featuring typical mechanics such as finding items, solving puzzles, and engaging in hidden object scenes. While the ambient sound and visuals enhance the experience, many players find the gameplay mechanics flawed, with issues like shifting objects and vague clues detracting from the overall enjoyment. Despite its lengthy playtime and engaging story, the gameplay is often criticized for being simplistic and lacking in depth, leading to mixed recommendations.
- “The ambient sound effects and Tibetan monastery music blend in seamlessly with the graphics and gameplay, and add to the enjoyment.”
- “I found that I really enjoyed the story and gameplay.”
- “The gameplay of Tibetan Quest consists of what you'd expect from a hidden object game: visit a bunch of areas, solve puzzles using items to progress, complete some minigames, and most importantly, play some hidden object scenes!”
- “The artwork and the story are beautiful, yet the gameplay itself is subpar.”
- “Oh, also, the hidden object parts have that infuriating mechanic of objects that change every few seconds... for me, this breaks the flow of the search, which I guess is a way to make things more difficult, but I just don't like it.”
- “The control seems fidgety, the puzzles are far too simple, and disappearing or shifting objects are a core mechanic in hidden object games, which often have excessively vague or confusing clues.”
