The game's story is described as simplistic yet charming, featuring a protagonist's transformation from a farmer to a powerful character, though the mechanics of being a lich are criticized for lacking coherence. While players appreciate the humor and character progression, they feel the narrative could benefit from further development. Overall, the enjoyable gameplay somewhat compensates for the story's shortcomings.
