The game lacks a coherent story, offering little more than a vague premise centered around investigating the "red haven complex." Players find minimal context or narrative depth, with scattered notes that fail to clarify their purpose or the game's overall significance.
- “The game has no story, no jump scares, and no ending; the game is basically pointless.”
- “The goal is to investigate the Red Haven 'complex'... as for what this complex is supposed to be, I don't know. There are a few vague notes lying about, but they don't provide any real story or even clues as to who you, the player, are, or why you're here.”
