The game's story is praised for its engaging plot and flow, making it appealing to casual RPG players. While some reviewers note that the writing may not be exceptional, the overall narrative and character development, particularly of Wirot, keep players invested and entertained. Despite its flaws, the story is seen as a significant factor that enhances the gaming experience.
“The story turns out to be very interesting, and that's the only thing that makes me continue to play. I'm starting to love this game and the characters, especially Wirot. This proves to me that bad graphics with okay gameplay and a good story can make a good game; at least it works for me.”
“This game has solid storylines and a good flow for casual RPG players like me who don't like games that are too hard or puzzles that make me stuck, unlike many other RPG Maker games.”
“One thing this game gets right is the storyline, the plot, and the flow.”
“I don’t think the story so far is anything to write home about and the combat is unbalanced, but I’m actually having fun playing it.”
“Despite that, I actually think it adds a lot of charm to the game. If the game were as straightforward as I think the story is trying to be, I don’t know if it would have maintained my interest.”
“Mind, I'm not saying the game has a bad story.”

“+ custom ethnic music, though interspersed with standard RPG Maker music.”
“I relaxed for 5 minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.”

The graphics of the game are described as mediocre by some users, with a mix of opinions on their quality; while some find them lacking, others appreciate the art style and presentation.

Overall, the graphics are seen as a secondary aspect, overshadowed by the narrative and gameplay experience.
“It certainly does, and the graphics are mostly well made and chosen.”
“I actually quite like the art style and presentation.”
“Mediocre graphics, mediocre writing of the dialogue, not very balanced characters, and some skills require MP while others don't, like the mighty triple attack. The skill balance is also kind of out of whack.”
“The story turns out to be very interesting, and that's the only thing that keeps me playing. I started to love this game and the character, especially Wirot in my case. This proves to me that bad graphics with okay gameplay and a good story can make a good game; at least it works for me.”

The humor in the game is characterized as unintentionally hilarious, reminiscent of poorly executed voice acting from classic titles like Shenmue. Players find joy in the amusingly bad localization, eagerly engaging with characters to experience the next comically awkward line of dialogue. Overall, the humor adds a unique charm that enhances the enjoyment of the game.
“It reminds me of playing Shenmue on the Dreamcast for the first time and hearing that voice acting; you can't help but find it funny.”
“However, because of the hilarious localization, I'm actually enjoying going around and talking to people just to hear what butchered English line they'll come up with next.”
“The localization for me is worth anyone giving it a go; it's so funny!”

“The overall ambiance feels flat and uninspired, making it hard to immerse myself in the game world.”
“Despite the game's potential, the lack of environmental detail and sound design severely undermines the intended atmosphere.”
