The story of the game presents an intriguing premise with a mix of fun quests and dark turns, but many players feel it is rushed and could benefit from additional missions and a more developed narrative. The political undertones and character motivations, such as the hypocritical mission givers, add depth, yet some players desire a stronger buildup to enhance player engagement. Overall, while the concept is entertaining, the execution leaves room for improvement, particularly in pacing and mission variety.
- “Fairly fun, and the way the story takes a dark turn partway through is quite interesting.”
- “This is an interesting approach to both story and perspective for a VR game; it has many shortcomings but is well worth the wait. I only wish the game was longer.”
- “I've given it a thumbs up because the story seems like it could be fun, and I'm sure young kids will love it.”
- “The fact that the only mission givers in this game are the hypocritical conservative granny who hates other people having fun (making comic books and Pokémon illegal) and the commissioner does play into the political messages the game expresses.”
- “However, from a story and gameplay perspective, I feel that having an introduction segment where you do things that actually give the micros a reason to yell 'I love you, Giant Cop!' before you start destroying roads and blowing up the farmer's market would lead to a better buildup of unease for the player.”
- “However, the story felt rushed.”
