The music features a strong orchestral score that is well-suited for the title screen, but it becomes overpowering as background music during gameplay, with limited variety as it primarily consists of a single track. Overall, while the music is appreciated, its implementation in-game could be improved.
- “There's good dramatic orchestral music, which is fantastic for the title screen.”
- “The music is nice.”
- “Nice music track.”
- “The music is too overpowering to serve as background music at the default volume, and there only seems to be one track.”
- “The soundtrack lacks variety and quickly becomes repetitive.”
- “The music doesn't fit the game's atmosphere, making it feel disjointed.”

The game features a story mode as its main highlight, alongside sandbox and wave survival modes. However, as it is currently in early access, there is limited background information available, leaving players to explore the narrative elements on their own. Overall, the inclusion of a single-player story has been positively received.
- “There will be a story mode as its main feature, as well as a sandbox mode and wave survival mode.”
- “It's nice to see a single-player story.”
- “The game was only recently released into early access, and so far there's no story or background information provided.”
- “I load into mission mode, to find a Resident Evil 2-style home that is designed by someone who loves railings; literally, there are railings in places where railings shouldn't be.”

The graphics in the game are generally praised as great, with some areas showcasing reasonably nice visuals. However, users have reported issues with the game's performance, including freezing that necessitated a reboot. The graphical detail settings are accessible through a standard Unity launcher, though the control mapping can be somewhat confusing.
- “Oh, the graphics are great too! :)”
- “Following that, you'll see the standard Unity launcher, from which you can select a graphical detail level and see the somewhat confusing control mapping. There are actually very few keys to remember if you're using mouse and keyboard, and then, eventually, the game's loading screens and main menu.”
- “+ Reasonably nice graphics in some parts.”
- “Once it froze so badly that I couldn't do anything in Windows as the game didn't want to let go of my graphics display; even Ctrl-Alt-Delete didn't work, so I had to reboot.”
- “Following that, you'll see the standard Unity launcher, from which you can select a graphical detail level and see the somewhat confusing control mapping; confusing only because of the different control methods. There are actually very few keys to remember if you're using mouse and keyboard, and then, eventually, the game's loading screens and main menu.”

The gameplay is criticized for a lack of clarity regarding the different modes, as users find that the settings only alter display features without providing meaningful changes, leading to a disjointed experience during play.
- “No information is provided on what any mode does; the settings only change display features, which can change at random during gameplay.”
