  • story42 mentions

    The game's story is generally considered thin and poorly written, with a simplistic and sometimes silly narrative that seems aimed at a younger audience. Players noted a lack of clarity regarding character backgrounds and faction dynamics, as well as repetitive mission designs that detract from the overall experience. While the game includes various gameplay elements like crafting and a card game, the story itself is not a focal point, leading many to view it as secondary to the gameplay mechanics.

    • “It has a story, crafting, cooking, a talent tree with passive bonuses to help your team, various classes of survivors that feel unique, and a fun card game to take your mind off the shooting.”
    • “The plot in this game is seasoned with comics.”
    • “It's a paid flash game with a small story, comic, and loot pool that will allow you to improve your character.”
    • “The story is thin and not terribly well-written, but the skilling and upgrade paths are interesting and the card game is decent enough to be playable.”
    • “There are pieces left seemingly undone, which is a bit annoying - I can understand controlling access to scrap through drops/salvage only, but why is there no merchant anywhere that I can buy mundane items from - like plastic, metal, etc? In the storyline, the scrapper team seems to get the short end of the stick - not a lot of explanation about who they are or who Nana is, and it wasn't clear to me that these were opposing factions at all.”
    • “The dialogue is infantile and near pointless for the most part; the writing is poor as is the story.”
  • gameplay32 mentions

    Gameplay in this title is marked by significant bugs that can lead to crashes and freezes, affecting both solo and multiplayer modes. While the game features a unique blend of 3D and 2D elements, this can create frustrating mechanics, such as the need to maneuver around enemies on slanted paths. Despite its addictive looting and crafting systems, many players find the gameplay simplistic and occasionally tedious, with a lack of customization options further detracting from the experience.

    • “Every aspect of gameplay is, at some point, buggy (either in solo mode or online multiplayer) and can make the game freeze or crash.”
    • “It's really uninteresting, boring, and sometimes it drags on with the walling mechanic and not being able to attack enemy cards with your cards, only with your survivors.”
    • “Nothing says 'I don't care about your gameplay experience' quite like a game that doesn't allow you to customize a single key.”
