The game's story is criticized for its lack of a coherent structure, with no storyboard or meaningful choices, forcing players to replay for different endings. While some players find the storytelling improves with familiarity and appreciate its length, the poor translation hampers understanding and enjoyment of the plot. Overall, the narrative feels disjointed and lacks the depth and interactivity found in other simulation games.
“At first it felt a little disjointed and weird, but this game does actually have decent length to it (a good 2 hours at least for a single run) and you get used to its storytelling relatively quickly.”
“The story is structured always the same: you chat with two people on your phone by exchanging two messages, and then you meet up with the one for whom you choose the heart option.”
“Story is good.”
“The game has no storyboard and forces you to replay the entire game just to get a different few seconds-long ending, and you cannot change any choice and are stuck with what you choose.”
“Not only do you not have a storyboard, but also the skippable scenes take a few seconds to skip and to load, so it takes quite some time just to skip and click your way through the game.”
“Other simulation games provide route maps and story development charts, allowing players to change decisions at certain points of the whole story.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious, particularly due to the need to restart from the beginning to explore different endings and the effort required to hunt down achievements.
“Is a decent FMV, but having to restart the game all over from scratch again to get to different endings is just so tedious.”
“Hunting down achievements is tedious.”

“The variety of choices and outcomes makes each playthrough feel unique, encouraging multiple runs.”
“I love how each decision impacts the story, making me want to replay it to explore all the different paths.”
“The game has no replayability as everything will be the same.”
