The story of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it lacking in depth and coherence, often feeling repetitive and rushed. While the framing as a TV series and the potential for character development and choices are praised, many feel that the world-building and mission execution are underwhelming. Despite its flaws, some players appreciate the engaging elements and believe it offers a decent distraction for those not seeking a complex narrative.
“Found the story incredibly interesting and the ending was not what I was expecting.”
“The framing of the story as a TV series is an original thought, and the game does offer a lot of choices and variation in aspects such as handling missions, the main character's development, and which characters are present or not.”
“I really enjoy the story; it is well written and the world/lore is very detailed and consistent.”
“Overall, the entirety of 'unnatural', with all its inconsistencies, repeated words, sentences, and scenes felt like it was a rushed story without any thought, passion, or care being put into it.”

The game features a commendable replayability factor, particularly for a choose-your-own-adventure (CYOA) format, offering players the option to explore different tactical approaches or roles. However, despite its interesting concept, some users still find it difficult to recommend overall.
“The game offers a unique experience with multiple paths, making each playthrough feel fresh and engaging.”
“I love how the choices I make lead to different outcomes, encouraging me to replay the game to explore all the possibilities.”
“For a CYOA game, it has a surprising amount of replay value: tactical team or CSI tech?”
“Once you've made your choices, there's little incentive to go back and play again.”
“The lack of meaningful differences in outcomes makes replaying feel tedious.”

Reviews indicate a significant lack of character development, with players noting the absence of details, explanations, and opportunities to connect with team members, resulting in a shallow experience devoid of meaningful world-building.
“There's nothing: no details, no explanations, no time to get to know the members of your team better, no world-building, no character development.”
“The characters feel flat and one-dimensional, lacking any meaningful growth or backstory.”
“I was disappointed by the lack of depth in character arcs; they don't evolve or change throughout the game.”
