While many players find this mechanic fun and original, some feel it can become repetitive over time.

The game's story is criticized for its lack of depth, with minimal narrative elements and no cut-scenes, relying primarily on character dialogues during missions. While the mission structure offers variety and some surprising twists in the final mission, the overall experience feels disconnected, as players engage in heists without a cohesive storyline. The soundtrack is noted as a positive aspect, but the absence of voice acting detracts from the atmospheric immersion.

- “The only kind of story element are the dialogues between the characters during a mission.”
