  • story
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is criticized for lacking depth and engagement, feeling more like a series of repetitive mini-games rather than a cohesive narrative. Players note the absence of meaningful plot development and cutscenes, with only a few moments of interest at the beginning and end. While some enjoy the gameplay and find it accessible, the overall consensus is that the story fails to provide a compelling experience.

    • “Overall for gameplay 7/10, story 7.5/10, bug 10000/10, graphic 7/10.”
    • “I haven’t completed the whole main story and side quests yet, but so far I’m really enjoying it.”
    • “The gameplay is easy to pick up, so kids and adults alike can enjoy, but still packed with enough missions and mini-games to keep things exciting.”
    • “The game feels like a compilation of buggy mini-games, instead of an actual full game with a real plot and lore to keep the players engaged.”
    • “The game itself offers plenty of things to do without much value and/or story to add to its universe.”
    • “The missions in the game are always repetitive and very boring, just looking for items, cooking, and fishing. At least the boring missions can end with a funny and interesting cutscene because the price is very expensive, but it turns out there is no cutscene, only at the beginning and at the end of the game.”
