The game's story is largely absent, with players noting a lack of in-game narrative or lore beyond a brief description on the store page. Many find the storytelling weak and clichéd, leading to a disjointed experience that fails to engage, especially given the short length of the game. Overall, the absence of meaningful context or character development detracts significantly from the gameplay experience.
- “There's no story or lore past the final boss you face tying back into the title screen.”

- “Throws you right in with no story unless you read the paragraph on the store's page, which is very cliché.”
