The story mode is described as cute and silly, providing a light narrative that complements the gameplay but is not essential to the experience. While the story spans around 75 stages and offers a decent challenge, players primarily engage with the game for its gameplay mechanics rather than the plot itself. The difficulty progression is well-received, gradually increasing as players advance, making it accessible yet engaging for a variety of skill levels.
- “There's enough here to warrant a play-through for panel masters, especially seeing the silly story unfold.”
- “The main story campaign being a gauntlet of objectives and play styles is a brilliant way to go about it; it feels like a proper celebration of the wide variety of fun to be had with this style of game.”
- “The story mode is cute and funny too.”
- “It has a story mode, but not much.”
- “The story only involves the first 75 stages; the rest are just harder bonus levels.”
- “There is a leaderboard for the best scores obtained in the game's 'endless' mode, and of course there is always speedrunning, but not much to do after completing the story for players who aren't already close to the top level in skill.”
