The story mode is relatively short, taking about 1 to 1.5 hours to complete, and serves primarily as an introduction to enemy types and weapons. While it can be frustrating, especially in challenging levels, players find that the real depth of the game lies in the arcade mode. However, some users noted difficulties in keeping track of collectibles and quests throughout the story.
