The game's story emphasizes resilience and the unpredictability of life, but players note a lack of narrative context and character development within the gameplay itself. Instead, the backstory is only available in the store's description, leaving players to feel disconnected from the story while primarily focusing on data collection.
“Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
“When doing so, in addition to seeing it wasn't, I also noticed that the 'About the Game' section on the store page details the backstory for the game.”
“If you plan on getting into it, make sure to read it there as you won't see anything to do with the story within the game itself.”
“- No context, story, or characters... the goal just seems to be to collect data without dying.”
“When doing so, in addition to seeing it wasn't, I also noticed that the 'about the game' section on the store page details the backstory for the game.”
