The story in the game is often described as confusing and lacking a clear narrative, leaving players feeling unsatisfied. Some reviewers suggest that the game would benefit from either fully embracing its theme of the seven deadly sins or focusing on the characters' dynamics instead. Despite its shortcomings, the story is noted to have an intriguing quality that piques interest.
“The story is a bit strange but intriguing.”
“Perhaps the most confusing thing is the story, and by that I mean there isn't really one.”
“In my opinion, this game would be better served going all in on this seven deadly sins theme and building the narrative more, or dropping the theme completely and just crafting the story behind whatever is going on with William, Smith, and this random group in the building.”
