The story aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing a desire for more quests and missions to enhance gameplay. While some enjoy the humor and wacky fun of the missions, others find them lacking in depth and clarity, leading to a sense of boredom after completing the available content.

- “I love the game but it should have specials for all the animals and more missions and better graphics. Please make more things in an update! ☺”

- “The gameplay is fun, the goats are cool, and you can drive!”

- “I had to delete all my apps and music to have room for it.”
- “This game is amazing but the achievements are messed up when I hogtied someone and put them on a train track. It's said that I went to the moon and when I went to the moon it said that I listened to the flute song all the way. It's not a big thing and doesn't really affect you that much unless you're an achievement hunter, but please fix it anyway.”
