The game's story is generally well-received, with players appreciating its engaging narrative, strong character realism, and intense atmosphere that enhances the mission experience. While some find the storyline compelling and emotionally resonant, others express frustration with the limited number of missions and the challenging gameplay mechanics that can detract from the overall enjoyment. Overall, the storytelling is highlighted as a standout feature, though gameplay issues may hinder some players' experiences.
- “The atmosphere is intense, with gritty visuals and a story that pulls you in emotionally.”
- “What stands out most about Destructive Creation's work is the storytelling and the cinematic; '63 Days' is another beautiful work, engaging and well crafted.”
- “The game has improved significantly, with its story and strong anti-war theme standing out.”
- “What lets the game down is not the story or the premise but the gameplay and level design. If, like me, you did not have it on easy, you find the levels are made to be completed one way and one way only. Rather than stealth, it is down to you to kill every single person on the map at times. Once you have completed everything, you have done a mammoth shootout in which the AI targets only you, and your own team only fires back occasionally. Add to that enemy AI which acts randomly at times, sometimes being able to see through solid structures but unable at others, and it ends up being a frustrating mess at times.”
- “I really want to say I could recommend 63 Days but ultimately can't. The story is done very well and with care, but I had to play it in Polish as the English voice acting, like War Mongrels, is criminally bad. The heavy true-to-events feel is done very well, but I do find it strange why they did not use their actual names. This may have been true to real life as many resistance circuits in WWII did to stop anyone from being discovered if they were caught.”
- “This is 'War Mongrels' part 2... different story, same gameplay from the same company, more difficult though.”
