The game's story is minimal, with only brief character backstories provided, leading to a lack of depth in narrative and overall engagement. Players feel that the absence of a dedicated story mode and arcade mode detracts from replayability and the overall experience. The developer's reliance on player interactions as a substitute for storytelling and level design has not resonated well with users.
- “The developer gambled that other players would be an acceptable substitute for adding storytelling, level design, etc. to the game.”
- “A slower-paced tutorial and maybe a story mode would help it.”
- “No story: each character has a small paragraph for their backstory; however, the game is missing an arcade mode which would add to the replayability of the game.”

Players note that the lack of an arcade mode limits the game's replayability, as the minimal backstory for each character does not provide enough incentive to revisit the game.
- “The game lacks an arcade mode, which would significantly enhance its replayability, as each character only has a brief backstory.”
- “Without a compelling story or varied gameplay modes, I found little motivation to replay the game after finishing it once.”
- “The limited character backstories and absence of additional game modes make it hard to justify multiple playthroughs.”
