While the main plot is engaging and thought-provoking, some players found the pacing uneven and criticized the writing for being rushed and poorly executed in parts. Additionally, the hidden side story introduces unsettling elements that may not resonate with all players, leading to mixed feelings about its overall impact.

    • “Basically, I had no idea what the storyline is.”
    • “The story tries to say some profound things about love but doesn't really live up to its ambitions, mostly because of a failure with 'show, don't tell.' The story puts its focus in sections that are irrelevant to its thesis.”
    • “The primary conflict in the story deals with the fact that the pair were manipulated to love each other without their consent and now need to wonder if their feelings are 'real.'”

  • character development2 mentions

    Character development is rated 8/10, with notable time skips that impact depth but still deliver a solid experience. The "little sister" character starts off weaker compared to others but shows significant growth towards the end, while the side characters are praised for their strong presence and appeal. Overall, the character design and expressions are described as very cute, enhancing the overall experience.

    • “Character development: 8/10 (it is pretty short so there are a fair bit of time skips, otherwise it is pretty good. The 'little sister' is a decent heroine, but is weaker than the two other counterparts and some other heroines in other visual novels I have played. She gets better in the last 20 minutes as she evolves from a standard to a pretty amazing heroine. The side characters are amazing throughout though.)”
    • “Very cute character design and expression.”
