The story is centered around nightlife and presents a unique, albeit strange narrative. However, players find the progression tied to repetitive tasks, such as killing 400 zombies, to be tedious, detracting from the overall enjoyment and making the experience feel more like a grind than a compelling challenge.
“The story is a bit weird but interesting.”
“The story mostly revolves around nightlife, though I didn't make much progress in an hour, so I won't go into that part.”
“The need to kill 400 zombies to progress the story and similar mandatory tasks feel tedious and repetitive, making the game more of a grind than an enjoyable challenge.”

The music in the game is widely praised for being awesome and well-complemented by nice visuals. However, users express a desire for more audio options, particularly the ability to adjust the music volume independently from overall sound levels. Additionally, technical issues like locked v-sync and frame rate limitations on certain platforms have been noted, affecting the overall experience.
“Awesome music and nice visuals.”
“The game has issues, particularly with the music. The volume slider only adjusts the overall volume, and there's no option to lower the music specifically, which can be quite distracting.”
“There are significant problems with the music settings. The volume control is limited, and it would be much better if players could adjust the music volume independently.”
“The music aspect of the game is lacking. The inability to customize the music volume makes it hard to enjoy the gameplay experience.”
