  • story
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is minimal, primarily limited to a brief tutorial, leaving players without a compelling narrative to drive their engagement. With everything unlocked from the start and an overwhelming number of puzzles, the lack of a cohesive storyline diminishes the sense of progression and completeness, reducing the experience to mere puzzle-solving entertainment. Players express a desire for more narrative depth and varied storylines to enhance their motivation to continue playing.

    • “At the same time, it doesn't really have any external reason to keep playing; there's no story (well, except the minuscule one in the tutorial). Everything is unlocked from the beginning, and the number of puzzles is so big that any kind of 'completeness' just will not happen, so this keeps you entertained just as long as doing slide puzzles keeps you entertained.”
    • “I wish there were options to get the main vehicle piece a different length or another storyline, for example.”
