The story in the game is generally considered basic and linear, serving primarily to connect the various missions rather than engaging players deeply. While some players appreciate the neat twists and interesting scenarios within missions, many find the character development lacking and the overall narrative unmemorable. Despite its shortcomings, the game features enjoyable mechanics and visuals that can make the experience worthwhile for some players.
“And I noticed those who only played less than an hour or even a couple of hours gave a negative review, but I for one stuck with it and I'm so happy I did. The story pulled me in!”
“Overall, the story starts off simple in which two warriors exit a cave and try to return home. You have various quests to complete in the first map, but in the end, you find out over the course of several missions that there is a bigger problem on the horizon.”
“The game also has an interesting story, with enjoyable characters and a decent combat system.”
“The story is not that engaging and the only saving grace are the visuals, which are usually very well done.”
“The story exists to glue the missions together if you ask me.”
“The game doesn't have enough optional stuff (every single quest in the game has its own achievement and there's nothing else), every new part of the main quest is done like a separate map and you can't even re-visit the previous areas.”

Kyn is a game for people who want to hack, slash, and blast through hordes of monsters without totally turning off their brain. While it never quite reaches its full potential, it's still a very entertaining game and worth considering for any fans of the genre.

Overstuffed and underdeveloped, Kyn is a buggy RPG with good combat, but without a great story or engaging character progression.
