The gameplay has been criticized for being unengaging and lacking fun, primarily due to poor mechanics and a lack of updates for several months. Reviewers emphasize the need for significant polishing and improvements to enhance the overall experience.
“Even worse, it's not actually fun to play in its current state (and I doubt it ever would be given the 'mechanics' present), and the game hasn't been updated for 3, going on 4 months.”
“Needs a lot of polishing and some actual gameplay.”

The story has faced significant criticism, with players expressing disappointment over the shift from a sandbox style to a restrictive gameplay experience that confines them to their house for most of the allotted time. Despite updates claiming to extend the story from 50 to 100 days, players report that the game still resets at 50 days, hindering progression and enjoyment. Overall, many feel that the updates have detracted from the initial promise of the game.
“The game was better in early access; it was originally sandbox style, but now you're trapped in your house for 90% of the allotted 50 days, making it impossible to level up or evolve or pass the test. Even though the update claims to have extended the story from 50 to 100 days, it still resets at 50. There are almost no drops. I paid for this game on Kickstarter and Steam with high hopes, and so far, all the updates have done is make it worse.”
“The story feels incredibly limited and repetitive. The initial promise of a sandbox experience has been replaced by a linear and confining narrative that doesn't allow for any real exploration or growth.”
“Despite the updates, the story remains stagnant and unengaging. The lack of meaningful progression and the forced constraints on gameplay have made the experience frustrating rather than enjoyable.”
