The game's story is frequently highlighted as a charming and engaging aspect, with many players appreciating its cute characters and immersive fantasy world. However, some users express frustration over the lengthy cutscenes and the overall brevity of the storyline, suggesting a desire for more content and events to enhance the experience. While the narrative is generally well-received, there are calls for improved pacing and additional character development to maintain player interest.
“The designs of the characters are lovely, and the story is quite immersive.”
“What makes you stay for a while is the story, watching not just MC Liliana improve as a witch and a person, but many characters around her, in a nice fantasy world build.”
“This game has pretty engaging story and characters.”
“Levelling is fair, after crafting a few hundred of the same item, you leave it in the shop and come back a few hours later to a bunch of text story taking up most of your game time (very fast game progression).”
“My only real disappointment was that it was short; I finished it (granted, while home sick) in 5 days - and that's with most of the last couple of days spent waiting for explorations and sales to happen in real time in order to progress the story.”
“Needs a better story, character development, and more exciting exploration to get ingredients and mini-games.”
