The game has low replayability, primarily offering only the pursuit of achievements after completing its short playtime and experiencing all four endings. Most players are unlikely to revisit it, as there is little incentive beyond achievement hunting.
“Do you want a game that gives a lot of time or replay value like to get all the achievements?”
“The game doesn't have much in the way of replay value, beyond getting the achievements, but for a game that can be completed in a few hours, it was an enjoyable experience.”
“Once you watch all four endings, there is very little replay value.”
“Additionally, I don't see people sitting through this since there is little replay value other than to get the achievements.”
