    The story of the xblaze series, particularly in "Lost: Memories," is praised for its engaging and unique narrative that expands on the lore of the BlazBlue universe, set 150 years prior to the original series. Players appreciate the layered interactivity and character development, although some feel that new characters are underdeveloped compared to their predecessors. Overall, the storytelling is considered a significant improvement over the first game, offering a compelling experience that rewards thorough exploration and decision-making.

    • “This has been my favorite visual novel so far because what it does is extremely unique to turn what would be an otherwise ordinary story into a magical experience.”
    • “Set in the world of the popular BlazBlue series, Lost Memories expands on the excellent story found in Xblaze Code: Embryo and offers us an even broader look at the world in unique, interesting ways.”
    • “The way that the narrative dips in and out of the original story, giving us new angles to the prior events is handled skillfully and the entire experience was an enjoyable one that rang in around fifteen hours.”
    • “As a sequel, I feel like the new characters were simply a plot device that even the creators were too lazy to give them a name. Not that they were bad, but they were simply outshined by the previous game's characters and underdeveloped.”
    • “While it's not an original story, it does put the player through tasks such as finding pieces, answering trivia, and making decisions that keep the player at least invested enough to carry on.”
    • “The mechanic where we collect memory fragments is better than reading certain articles in the first game to get on someone's route, but getting a bad ending in the second half of the game was as ridiculous as the curry side story.”

    The gameplay is primarily focused on simple mechanics, such as walking around an island to collect gems or exploring floors to find memory fragments, which some players find bland and minimalistic. While the mechanics are easy to learn and add a slight interactive element to the otherwise linear narrative, many reviewers feel that the gameplay lacks depth and variety, making it feel uninspired. Overall, the gameplay serves its purpose but does not elevate the experience significantly.

    • “The mechanic where we collect memory fragments is better than reading certain articles in the first game to get on someone's route, but getting a bad end in the second half of the game was as ridiculous as the curry side story.”
    • “This is a fun mechanic that adds a bit of game element to what is otherwise a very linear story.”
    • “The actual gameplay is just walking around a basic island collecting gems, and I know visual novels rarely have any actual gameplay in them, but if you're going to put it in there, don't make it so insultingly bland.”
    • “In truth, as far as gameplay mechanics go, this one is pretty simple.”
    • “There is an exploration mechanic where Lissa must travel each floor of this abyss one at a time, looking for fragments of her fractured memory.”
