The game's story combines elements of a heist thriller and political conspiracy, providing a unique narrative experience that appeals to fans of adventure games. While some players found the plot engaging and the character dynamics well-executed, others criticized it for being slow-paced, predictable, and at times, uninteresting.

The music in the game is widely praised for being catchy and reminiscent of a spy-action thriller soundtrack, enhancing the overall experience.

- “I got one third of the way through this point and click adventure, the characters are uninspired, the plot is thin, the engine is highly unstable and crashes constantly.
