The story is well-written with interesting twists and emotional depth, providing a mix of humor and sadness.
The artwork and character designs are lovely and well-drawn, enhancing the overall visual experience.
Despite the poor English translation, the game offers great value with a long and engaging storyline.

The English translation is riddled with grammatical errors and awkward phrasing, making it difficult for non-Chinese speakers to fully enjoy the game.
Some narrative choices feel odd or rushed, particularly in the second half of the story, leading to unsatisfying conclusions.
Background NPCs are exaggerated and sometimes out of place, detracting from the overall immersion of the game.
