The game's story is criticized for lacking depth and coherence, with some players noting that it feels more like a collection of tasks rather than a narrative-driven experience. While it offers a dark and creepy atmosphere, it may not appeal to those who prefer well-developed storylines, leading to mixed feelings about its overall quality.

- “I'm giving this game a solid 2 stars just because it is the first ever Slendrina game, so its quality is understandable, but unlike other games, this one does not have any story or lore.”

If you want to play a game that is very dark and creepy, go for it, but if you are fond of story-driven games, I won't suggest this one.”
