The game's story aspect is largely criticized for lacking engaging quests or a cohesive narrative, leaving players with a sense of freedom akin to "god mode" in Sim City, which can lead to boredom. While a beta career mode introduces limited objectives, the overall experience feels more like a building simulator without substantial purpose. The plot editor is noted as a fun feature, but its restrictive nature detracts from the potential for a more immersive story-driven experience.
“The plot editor is genius and quite fun.”
“I may be wrong, I hope I am, but according to the developers (which you can read on the game's website itself) they decided to scrap all the original game ideas and keep only the redesign plot of the game.”
“Hopefully the game will become more of a game as opposed to a pure building plopper without real purpose to it, aside from the artificial missions.”
“However, it would be advised to set goals for yourself. The game does not have any quests or storylines to keep you engaged, so effectively it's the same as playing SimCity in 'god mode'... total freedom, so you might get bored if you rush into things.”
