The game's story is largely considered non-existent, with minimal narrative elements and no cutscenes to enhance the experience. While players enjoy the abundance of co-op missions across various planets, the lack of a compelling story may be a drawback for some, particularly for those seeking a deeper narrative experience. Overall, the focus is more on gameplay and cooperative fun rather than storytelling.
“My 10-year-old daughter and I are having fun going through the co-op missions on a shared screen.”
“The story is... non-existent (good or bad that is on you to decide, but I have no qualms with it).”
“❌ story telling with cutscene”
“Each mission takes about one minute.”

The graphics are characterized by a straightforward 80's aesthetic that effectively fulfills its purpose, though they lack standout features or innovation. Overall, while they are adequate, they do not exceed expectations.
“The graphics have a straightforward 80's vibe that does the job pretty well, but there's nothing much to remark on and they don't leave anything more to be desired.”
