The story is described as decent but ultimately loses coherence as it progresses, leading to a confusing conclusion. While the initial concept shows promise, the lack of interactivity and engaging gameplay reduces the overall impact, making it feel more like a lengthy cutscene than a fully realized narrative. Despite its early access status, some players appreciate the story's potential.
“Decent story and music.”
“You could make the character do some good or bad deeds and have 2 different ends to the story (heaven or hell).”
“The game is in early access, it's a work in progress, but I like the story.”
“The only time you can actually play would be for 1-2 minutes by going through a boring maze that will lead you to the end of the story.”
“I think the story idea was fine in the beginning, but it got lost in the middle, and by the end, you really don’t get it.”
“At least a simple story - 'Simple Story - Alex' had more interactivity; this is just a huge cutscene with 'here's your reward!'”
