The story revolves around completing collections, gathering keys, and undertaking quests to level up and acquire better gear. However, players find the narrative repetitive, particularly noting that certain quests, like the fishing quest, can become tedious and time-consuming.
“It does get repetitive after a while; it also didn't help that the fishing quest took me about 6 hours to complete, which involves shooting the same general area of the table over and over again.”

“If you approach this as just a relaxing thing to do rather than a score chaser, it's nice to just enjoy the realistic pinball physics, practice your shots, and enjoy the atmosphere.”
