Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The story mode is probably more fun if you know the characters, but I barely know the Uma's besides the more known ones like Haru, Oguri Cap, Gold Ship, etc.
80 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Monetization
Players who bring up Monetization mostly praise it.
I wanted to love this game, but this seems like a money grab.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
While the graphics and styling of the game is charming and enjoyable, and there's a couple of great fanservice pieces, the game itself is unbearably boring and should not be purchased.
13 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
In order to make custom teams, you have to grind lots of gold to buy the team slots, then go into a separate menu to put your Umas into teams and save them, then finally they will be selectable as an extra slot during character selection.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The soundtrack complements the aesthetic well with upbeat, synth-infused tracks and charming sound effects.

Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
That, and online is pretty dead, but it's solid enough solo and probably pretty fun in co-op.
