The story in "Super 56" is described as quirky and entertaining, providing a lighthearted backdrop to the gameplay, though it doesn't significantly enhance the overall experience. Players appreciate the game's replayability and the ability to progress through the story without needing to complete all mini-games in succession, but some feel that the pacing is slow and the number of unique games could be increased. Overall, while the narrative is enjoyable, it serves more as a fun addition rather than a driving force behind the gameplay.
“I was worried at first I'd have to beat all 56 in a row to win, but the story continues on no matter the amount of failures you have.”
“As absurd as you would expect from an onion soup-themed game, it's a WarioWare mini-game-like experience where everything is done with one button, featuring a neat little silly story mode. The game has actually received a few new mini-games added for free over time.”
“Super fun WarioWare-type game, and the story is nice.”
“While the individual minigames of Super 56 can feel quite clunky, and the game's structure and storytelling don't really elevate the core gameplay, I admire Super 56 for the wild creativity and follow-through on the single button conceit.”
“I got 50% through the story before I started getting so many repeats.”
“The story needs to progress much faster or there should have been like double the games.”

“Music: there's a few of those mostly remix of the main menu except the story cut-scene (I still have it in my head, get out of my head!)”
“Give us soundtrack!”
“My least favorite part of the game is that the music theme that plays throughout the entire game gets a bit repetitive after a while, but overall I had fun with the game.”
“Music: there are a few tracks, mostly remixes of the main menu, except for the story cutscenes (I still have it in my head, get out of my head!).”
“Give us a soundtrack!”
