The story aspect of the game is criticized for lacking a cohesive narrative, as it primarily offers descriptions of celestial bodies rather than a traditional story. While it may serve as an educational tool, it falls short of delivering a rich storytelling experience, making it more akin to an interactive storybook than a game with a compelling plot.
“This would make it easier for parents to read this to their children as a real interactive storybook.”
“Just an idea if any more interactive storybooks like this are developed.”
