The game's story is largely criticized for its minimal presence, with players expressing disappointment over the lack of immersive narrative beyond the initial moments. Many reviews highlight that the gameplay is primarily mission-based, often requiring players to watch ads to progress, which detracts from the overall experience. While some appreciate the charming art and unique gameplay, the absence of a substantial story or character development leaves many feeling unfulfilled.
