- Technical issues, such as audio problems and significant frame rate drops during gameplay, detract from the overall experience.

The gameplay has been criticized for its frustrating mechanics, particularly a horde system that penalizes players when too many enemies are present, leading to a sense of helplessness and lack of control. Despite recent updates that softened this mechanic, many players still find it overly punishing and poorly designed, compounded by issues like inadequate controller support and audio problems. Overall, the gameplay experience is deemed unsatisfactory, with some players comparing it unfavorably to mobile games.
“There was an update just recently where this mechanic was changed from outright killing you to immensely debuffing you instead.”
“These are enemies that will push you around, drain your health quickly, and all of that is multiplied due to the horde mechanic which will almost always be maxed out.”
“It was on sale, but the negative reviews warned of a horrific-sounding mechanic where if too many enemies were on the map, your run just ends.”
“I'm not saying it's all the game's fault, but I found many frustrating, anti-gaming mechanics thrown in here that made little sense beyond packing the game in with frustration.”
“Every mechanic in this game seems designed to build the difficulty wall and force you to scale it with almost no increase to your own power.”

Users report that the graphical options available are limited and ineffective, as adjustments made do not lead to noticeable improvements in visual quality. Overall, the graphics seem to lack depth and customization.
“I was able to pause and navigate the menu okay, but any graphical changes I made did not help whatsoever, potentially due to the limited graphical options available.”
“The graphics are underwhelming and fail to impress, making the overall experience feel dated.”
“Despite my attempts to adjust the settings, the graphics remained lackluster and did not enhance my gameplay experience.”

“The characters are one-dimensional and fail to evoke any emotional connection.”
