The story of "Tokyo re:connect" is a typical high school slice-of-life romance centered around a protagonist moving from the countryside to Tokyo, featuring engaging characters and promising writing. While the prologue sets the stage with a light-hearted tone and beautiful art, some players express a desire for deeper narrative shifts and interactions that enhance the experience. Overall, the game is recommended for those seeking a vibrant, character-driven story, though it may not satisfy those looking for darker themes.
- “Tokyo re:connect shows a lot of promise; the art and character design are fantastic, the writing is great, and from what I've seen in this decently sized prologue, the characters seem interesting enough. I feel the story could take a shift to a much darker tone, which would be pretty cool.”
- “Following the story, I found myself playing for a long time without even realizing it. Everything was well written and had a whole atmosphere for each event, but the fact of being able to interact with the scene and the things around it really won me over.”
- “The game is really good; I'm still finishing it, but the story for now is impressive. The music is amazing and the graphics look spectacular.”
- “The story is your typical high school slice of life filled with the usual selection of characters you would expect.”
- “Early into the game, I was met with a script error that blocks my progress through the story, and there is absolutely no way to fix this.”
- “In all honesty, whilst I found it pretty cool at first, I stopped investigating the objects pretty soon as I didn't feel like they contributed much to the main story.”

The music in the game, composed by Efe Tozan, effectively complements the slice-of-life theme and enhances emotional scenes, though it suffers from issues like loudness and repetitiveness, with some players noting the same tracks played multiple times. While the background music is generally soothing and fits the atmosphere, it often drowns out voice acting, necessitating adjustments in settings for better balance. Overall, the music is appreciated for its quality and mood-setting capabilities, but it could benefit from more variety and lower volume levels to improve the overall experience.
- “The music by efe Tozan fits in well with the slice of life theme, and does an excellent job in enhancing the more somber scenes.”
- “The background music is very soothing and sound effect noises such as rain will appear occasionally.”
- “The game is really good, I'm still finishing it, but the story for now is impressive; the music is amazing and the graphics look spectacular.”
- “8/10 - decent game all around, really nice art, a bit too many recycled backgrounds and songs over and over, makes the town seem extra small.”
- “The music all fits the mood yet doesn't come across as something the player won't go out of their way to hear again.”
- “You got the generic piano music in the background of each menu with the main three anime schoolgirls in the background.”
