The story in the game is described as interesting and engaging, with a fairly predictable plot that includes satisfying callbacks. While some players feel that the method of storytelling—collecting story pieces—feels out of place in a puzzle game, others appreciate the narrative's ability to enhance the overall experience. Additionally, the recent addition of new levels has expanded the story, making it more integral to the gameplay, though it remains optional for those who prefer to focus solely on the puzzles.
