The game's story aspect is criticized for its lack of depth and progression, with players expressing a desire for more narrative elements and varied challenges in the campaign. While some enjoy creating their own scenarios and appreciate the simplicity and addictive nature of the gameplay, others find the linearity and absence of a compelling storyline to be a drawback, leading to diminished engagement after completing numerous missions. Suggestions for improvement include adding unlockable content, more diverse missions, and a richer narrative experience.
- “I love creating my own maps and developing a story for them.”
- “This is simply the best game I have ever played. I like the skirmish mode, and each time it ends, it gives you a chance to save your finished game. Then I go to editor mode so I can build a story scenario of when the rebels show up and rise to power. I have been playing it for the past 2 years, and it never disappointed me. I recommend you guys to install this game too.”
- “The game is simple and addicting... If there is an AntiYoy 2, I hope there is a story while you play the campaign and more new troops and upgradable buildings. Thanks for creating this most simple and addicting game and making me love it.”
- “What is really annoying is the game replaces the restart option with skipping to the next mission, like they are telling you to give up, you can't do it!”
- “It lacks any kind of story or progression though, and after a couple dozen levels, I was no longer having fun and abandoned it.”
- “Kind of a cool concept, but gameplay was linear and boring. I completed like 30 missions in a row without struggling, and that took a while to do.”
