The game's story is generally appreciated for its originality and potential, but many players feel it lacks depth and progression, often expressing a desire for more missions, quests, and character development to enhance engagement.

“Game is good..... but there is no meaning of playing.... no mission... no story...”
“The story part has no relevance to the game too, it just tried to capture you by saying 'there's more to this game than just survival, folks!' when literally it's just another bad survival game with freakishly hard difficulty trying to make you throw some money to play their game.”
“This game would be so much better if it had more story to it, a story that could hook the player in and make them want to keep playing instead of jumping onto another game because they get bored of doing the same thing over and over again.”

Players express frustration with the excessive grinding required to build bases and gather resources, often feeling that the rewards do not justify the effort.

Overall, the desire for more engaging gameplay elements is a common theme among reviews.
“This game is far too much grinding for far too little reward.”
“Just seeing the complaints about the amount of grinding it takes to build even a simple base... that's the whole base of the game; without a base, what's the point?”
“The controls suck, it's difficult to do anything, you can't walk and look around, sometimes it lags with the buttons, you move forward as you collect things, I don't think there is a farming system (which would be a great improvement), it's fun all in all, but the controls are unnecessarily difficult to deal with, and it is difficult to get materials for anything.”
