Overall, the narrative seems to be perceived as enjoyable by some, but it suffers from inconsistencies and a lack of depth, leaving players confused about their goals.
“It's a fantastic game; you don't need the internet for this game, and if you turn on your net, then the ads will not come. I play this game as a story, and that story is too big, so I can't write here, but I suggest you also play this game like a story.”

“It's a great game, and the missions are very interesting as well.”

“Only downside is I'm confused about the mission of collecting coins, as you don't seem to earn for the mission what you collect.”
“The coin counter for the missions is busted.”
