The game's story is minimal and loosely structured, primarily revolving around the player's task to enter a portal under the guidance of a character claiming to serve the king. While the narrative is sparse, scattered messages throughout the game create a sense of intrigue and anticipation for players as they uncover the underlying mysteries. Overall, the story serves as a backdrop rather than a focal point, allowing players to engage more with the gameplay itself.
“There is a very loose story, but it doesn't matter.”
“As far as a story, other than being told to enter a portal, and more pestering from the same person who says they are working at the orders of the king, there is little story, but found messages add some anticipation of what the hell is going on and eventual discovery.”
“You start out barebones, almost naked with a few options for starting items before being thrust into the story.”
