The game's story is criticized for its lack of depth and engagement, with players feeling dropped into the experience without sufficient narrative context or interactive elements. While there is a basic plot involving Odin and a quest for Thor's hammer, many reviewers express a desire for more content and storytelling to enhance the overall experience.
“The story so far is straightforward: Odin told you to go get the hammer of Thor so he can reunite you with Freya.”
“Once there is a story and some things to interact with on the map.”
“The game is just missing the meat to go with the potatoes; you just get dropped in and there is no story or anything.”
“There is no passion to continue as there is no story laid out at the start.”
“I was hoping for more content to showcase what the developer intended to do with it, even a fetch quest or something along those lines.”
