The story serves primarily as a backdrop for the gameplay and visuals, which are visually appealing but not deeply engaging. Players can expect a basic narrative involving character interactions and a town-building element, with optional puzzles that can be bypassed if desired. Overall, the story is functional but not a focal point of the experience.
“The story is barely an excuse for the gameplay and visuals (which are very pretty), but I wasn't expecting a saga anyway.”
“It has a story, a picture/town you build up as you progress, different characters, and random other puzzles thrown in here and there that you can skip if you dislike them.”
