The story is generally considered weak and ends abruptly, leaving players confused about its connection to the puzzles. Additionally, important notes fade too quickly to be read, detracting from the narrative experience, although the puzzles themselves are praised for their creativity and cleverness.
“The story isn't worth much, and the game ends rather abruptly.”
“I don't think I understood the story intertwined with the puzzles, and notes faded before they could be read, but the puzzles are a lot of fun, creative, and clever.”
