The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.

“A nice aesthetic and good voice acting/art direction are not enough to let me overlook embarrassing writing, a messy jumble of hodgepodge mechanics that don't belong in the same game, an overly fussy UI, a stale and samey gameplay "loop"…”

“It's fun - for a few hours. Then it just repeats the same battles over and over. There's nothing very exciting about it in the long-run.”
