The story in the game is a complex tapestry of intertwined fairy tales and a deeper narrative that explores human behavior, but opinions are divided. While some players appreciate the well-crafted characters and intricate plotlines, others criticize the limited impact of player choices and the convoluted nature of the story, which can feel forced or disconnected. Overall, the writing is praised for its depth, but many feel that the execution detracts from the immersive experience typical of visual novels.
- “Your true purpose in this game is to (as the game title hints) untale the fairy tales told by one of the characters to uncover the true story of Revinia and not to write your own 'happy ever after.'”
- “Well-written characters and dozens of storylines completing each other.”
- “Right now, it's my number one game for those who want to play something with a deep, gripping story.”
- “A story which, I have to admit, I didn't like at all.”
- “There's issues I have with the plot and characters as well, as the author has watched too much Game of Thrones probably and everyone has plots within plots, and lies within lies. Everything is this way just to serve a silly narrative; it feels forced, and for a visual novel, that is pretty bad.”
- “It feels too much like you are witnessing the story instead of impacting it.”
