The game's story is often described as minimal and somewhat silly, featuring an alien abduction theme that serves primarily as humorous flavor text rather than a central narrative. While some players appreciate the quirky and light-hearted nature of the story, many feel it lacks depth and engagement, often overshadowed by the focus on puzzle-solving. Overall, the story is seen as a fun addition that can be easily ignored, with mixed opinions on its execution and relevance to gameplay.
“Other than that one problem, this really is a great game, with truly riveting story-telling!”
“The environment is friendly, the minimal storyline is fun and unobtrusive, and the puzzles are challenging.”
“The abduction story is charming and humorous.”
“Great game idea, fun story, music okay, execution terrible.”
“The story behind the campaign itself is somewhat weak.”
“The 'storyline' is also very much 'fluff' -- I think the game would be fine if it just asked you to build a CPU and didn't give you some silly 'aliens' based reason to do it.”
