The game's story is generally considered solid but somewhat predictable, with players appreciating its interesting plot and survival elements. However, some reviewers noted significant issues, such as being blocked from progressing due to gameplay mechanics, which can lead to frustrating dead ends. Overall, while the narrative has potential, it suffers from bugs and a lack of depth, leaving some players wanting a more intricate lore.
“There is an interesting plot that starts to develop from the get-go.”
“The idea of the story-line and combination of survival is awesome.”
“Awesome game with a great story line; I would recommend this game to everyone I know.”
“A major rule of telling an interactive story is to not lock story progression behind a single point of failure - either have it so the T-Rex can't be killed at this point, or have some other way to open the tunnel up (via a heavy crate, maybe?) in case the player does kill it.”
“This game does not really have any story; I have played this over and over again and I still did not get it.”
“There seems to be a set story with only one path that you can take.”

The music in the game has received positive feedback for its fitting soundtracks, particularly during combat, which heightens tension, while the non-combat tracks provide a relaxing atmosphere.

However, some users noted issues with repetitive combat music and a desire for improvements in the game's overall sound design.
“The music is perfect, especially in the battle.”
“It has an amazing soundtrack with natural sounds and a chill vibe; I even had the game open while writing this just to listen to the OST.”
“I really liked the non-combat background music; it was very relaxing.”
“The cutscenes need to be improved while the sound and music are also limited.”
“It is often the case, when there is no enemy around anymore, that the fight music starts to play over and over again until I have walked a bit.”
“The game looks amazing, that's for sure, the visuals and musical materials are a sweet treat for everyone that enjoys this type of game; however, the game is raw and hollow, there are many features that need to be implemented and things to fix before calling it a fully ready-to-sale product.”

The game's stability is a significant concern, with numerous reports of bugs, glitches, and poor animation affecting character control and cutscenes. While some players still find enjoyment in the game, many emphasize that it requires substantial polish to improve playability and overall experience. Overall, the consensus suggests that potential players should approach with caution, as the game currently suffers from stability issues.
“Animation and character control is very buggy.”
“For that reason, I'm giving this game a very cautious thumbs up - I clearly enjoyed it enough to complete the story - but with the heavy proviso that it is very buggy and needs a lot of polish to truly reach its potential (or even just an acceptable level of playability). I encourage others to give it a try (maybe wait for a sale) but be aware of what you're getting into first.”
“But the game is not made well; understandably it's just come out, but this game has a lot more work to be done with buggy gameplay and graphics that don't work with each other.”
