The game's story aspect is a mixed bag, with players enjoying the nostalgic tie-ins to beloved franchises like Toy Story and Monsters University, but often finding the missions repetitive and lacking depth. While some storylines are engaging and fun, others feel dull and filled with unnecessary side quests, leading to a sense of grind rather than enjoyment. Overall, the variety of playsets and character interactions are appreciated, but many players wish for more meaningful story progression and less reliance on side content.
- “The variety of the play sets is also a nice touch, jumping from The Incredibles super city to The Lone Ranger's old west, from Toy Story's Star Command to Monsters University campuses.”
- “Story progression is rather straightforward, with most telling their own tale, a detail to hook those who have already seen the movies these come from, while keeping the music from each one.”
- “The real meat and bones of the game are the story modes and I'm going to be going through them individually and how I enjoyed them.”
- “The problem is this world/story is very dull and boring and getting from place to place and doing things here seems like much more of a chore than having any fun.”
- “Forgettable story, forgettable gameplay (shoot shoot shoot) and beyond boring side quests.”
- “You start by expanding your settlement and collecting dozens of different boxes, which contain the buildings, then you plug up a volcano and then you study some goo and then the game just fizzles out and throws side quest after side quest at you without an apparent end.”

Overall, the gameplay is characterized by its simplicity and nostalgic charm, appealing to players who appreciate fun over realism. While some enjoy the unique mechanics and engaging elements like stealth and pranking, others find the experience marred by technical issues and repetitive tasks. The game features a mix of enjoyable combat and exploration, but opinions vary on the depth and engagement of its story and side missions.
- “I like the simplistic gameplay; it reminds me of a time when games didn't need to be the most realistic looking and were just fun.”
- “What makes this one so good is not only the hack and shoot gameplay mixed with interesting jumping segments, but the fact that you can also ride on the high seas with your own boat. Plus, this one actually includes almost no pointless side missions and has a moderately well-paced and thought-out story with an actual end!”
- “The stealth gameplay and emphasis on pranking give it a unique flavor as well.”
- “Forgettable story, forgettable gameplay (shoot, shoot, shoot) and beyond boring side quests.”

The stability of the 3.0 gold edition is generally praised, with users noting improved performance on capable hardware compared to the 1.0 version, which suffered from significant issues. However, some players report occasional frame drops and jitteriness, as well as the absence of online play and local co-op, which detracts from the overall experience.
- “I don't know what changed between the 1.0 Gold Edition and the 3.0 Gold Edition, but for whatever reason, 3.0 runs great on my laptop (which has a 3060 in it, by the way), while 1.0 ran absolutely terribly.”
- “There are some occasional frame drops and jitteriness in the tutorial/intro, but other than that, it runs great and plays exactly how I remember it, which is fantastic. Having the store-exclusive crystal characters is a great addition.”
- “Calling it 'Gold Edition' is misleading if half of the content and features are missing or removed, along with numerous bugs and glitches.”
- “Additionally, this version is buggy and lacks any sort of online play or even local co-op.”

The humor in the game is widely praised, with players finding it hilariously entertaining, likening its comedic elements to those found in Roblox. The use of whimsical items like funny tow cables and comical monster tires adds to the lighthearted experience, making gameplay enjoyable and engaging.
- “The game that started the best Disney game series ever made by mankind. Seriously, this game is hilariously good; it feels more like Roblox than Minecraft. My only complaint is that you can't use a controller to edit the toy box unlike 2.0 and 3.0.”
- “Swords and funny one-shot flintlock pistols are super fun to use.”
- “I do like the funny tow cable, and the monster tires are just comical and perfect for this.”

Players feel that while grinding is an essential part of the game, it could be improved by eliminating the need for real money to access additional missions. However, the absence of power discs makes the grinding process more challenging than anticipated.
- “This would make the game more appealing, because real money would not be involved in playing more missions, but it should be grindy.”
- “Despite coming with every figure and hex disc out the door, the game is missing all the power discs, making grinding a more difficult task.”

The game has limited replayability due to its shortcomings, making it more suitable for casual play rather than repeated sessions; it's recommended to wait for a sale if you're interested in a Disney-themed experience.
- “I can tentatively recommend it to those who want something Disney-related to fool around in, but what it's lacking hurts any replayable nature the game could have, so pick it up on a sale if interested.”
- “After completing the game, I found little incentive to return. The lack of meaningful choices and variety makes replaying feel more like a chore than a fun experience.”
- “While the initial playthrough was enjoyable, the absence of different paths or outcomes means there's not much reason to dive back in once you've seen everything.”
