The game's story is largely criticized for its lack of depth and repetitive mission structure, with players noting that missions often boil down to a monotonous cycle of rescuing injured characters and returning to headquarters. Additionally, technical glitches detract from the experience, leading to frustrating interruptions in gameplay. Overall, the narrative fails to engage players, leaving them more entertained by the game's bugs than its storyline.
“A mission is assigned to you, like rescue the broken leg guy, or rescue the broken hand guy, and you're given a vehicle to race to the scene to give aid, drop the injured (or wanderer, as they're often referred to as) off at the hospital, and return to HQ for the next assignment.”
“Mountain rescue simulator loads into the first mission fine, right up until you go to earn your training wheels on the rescue ATV.”
“An absence of storyline.”
“Admittedly, the game missions can get a bit stale, as they're mostly the same formula - drive to injured guy, drive to hospital, drive back to HQ, rinse and repeat.”
“Going by streamer footage, this appears to be the case for the next level as well, rendering the game unplayable for mouse and keyboard users as it unlocks missions sequentially and heavily relies on the ATV for much of the game.”
