The story aspect of the game is generally described as "okay," with a focus on simplicity and age-appropriateness for younger players. While the missions are easy and straightforward, some users find them lacking in depth and excitement, noting a lack of engaging extras like mini-games. Overall, the narrative seems to serve its purpose for a younger audience, but may not offer much for older players seeking a more complex experience.

“And when doing the missions, you just drive to the checkpoint, hit a button, and it does the mission for you.”
“There are about 10 missions and 4 stories; my kid got all the missions on the same day.”
