The game's story is conveyed through a series of creative and humorous dioramas, each presenting a unique narrative as players spot differences across multiple scenes. While the individual dioramas tell engaging stories, there is no overarching narrative connecting them, which some players found disappointing. The environmental storytelling enhances the experience, with levels becoming increasingly elaborate and detailed as players progress.
- “I love how the different scenes and dioramas all tell a funny and creative story.”
- “+ 20 fantastic 3D 'spot the difference' levels, each with two dioramas telling a different story.”
- “I found this environmental storytelling to be really enjoyable, particularly because the levels became more elaborate and detailed as I progressed.”
- “Two levels for each diorama, which put a little bit of story each time between the two scenes; sadly, there is no story connection from one diorama to another, at least I didn't find it.”
- “I hope they will briefly describe the story of every finished diorama or the names of the designers or illustrators who contributed to it.”
- “Each world is split into two levels, often telling a small environmental story between them before moving on.”
