The gameplay is described as typical for a visual novel, lasting between 6 to 10 hours, but lacks depth in its choices, which may not significantly impact the story. Players suggest waiting for a discount to make it a worthwhile purchase, as the experience may not justify its full price.

- “Three months ago I downloaded the game demo and it was okay, but didn’t seem to promise enough to be worth its list price, especially since some 'choices matter' multiple ending games that I’ve played in the past (cough... crystalline... cough) have 'time bomb' consequences that may hit you hours of gameplay later after making a 'wrong' choice.”
- “Gameplay-wise, it plays like your regular visual novel model.”
- “Since its gameplay lasts 6-10 hours, I recommend buying this game with a discount; I had luck on an 80% sale (3€) and it was totally worth it.”

Players highlight the emotional depth of the game, noting that while it features typical happy endings, it also includes profoundly gut-wrenching conclusions that evoke strong feelings, even in scenarios where characters do not die. This complexity adds a significant layer to the overall emotional experience.
- “Naturally, some of them are the happily ever after endings, and of course, there are a few endings where you die.
