The story in the game is generally considered simple and unremarkable, often described as an excuse to facilitate the gameplay of shooting zombies and completing missions. While some players appreciate the attempt at a unique narrative involving a zombie outbreak, many find it forgettable and poorly presented, with a lack of depth and coherence. Overall, the focus remains heavily on the frantic action and gameplay rather than the storyline itself.

- “The story is totally lame and not important, just skip it.”
- “I am going to be honest, I lost track of the story about halfway through - the game does a really bad job of explaining what is going on, it's all in sort of a PowerPoint presentation show in between each level, and offers no clues on what is actually happening.”
- “There is no story apart from some pictures with boring text (humor is unfunny too), missions are bite-sized with grind-based progression.”
