The story mode is praised for its beautiful environments and magical, cinematic feel, but it is criticized for being incredibly short and abruptly ending just as it seems to gain momentum. Players appreciate the charming AI companion and fantastical elements, yet many feel the game could have been significantly improved with more content and clearer plans for future expansions. Overall, while the story has potential, it leaves players wanting more and feeling that it could have been a standout title.

- “The story mode isn't just short, but jarringly cuts off just when you think the game is about to really take off.”
- “I feel like unless the devs are secretly building a full game sequel or intending to expand the story, this is going to be one of those games that you reference as a 'could have been one of the greats' with your gamer friends for a long time.”
