tl;dr: it's a gacha game, but supposedly an interesting one. But still gacha, so better to watch a YouTube video of the story than play it yourself.
I still do not know what gacha means, but I'm guessing it's a synonym for "Skinner box"
Basically it means the majority of the game relies on drawing from a pool of rewards that allows duplicate draws and has high rarity entries. It's gambling, put simply. And in almost all cases gacha games push you to spend real money for more chances at the good stuff.
