The round-based elimination system and the ability to unlock weapons and perks add a strategic layer to the gameplay, keeping it fresh and engaging.

Players appreciate the addition of new maps and gameplay features in the early access game, particularly the "tag grab" round, which enhances the experience for less skilled players. However, there is a desire for in-app purchases to unlock favorite characters more easily.
- “New maps and gameplay features are a great addition to the early access game (especially the 'tag grab' round as I am pretty terrible at killing other players; it gives me a chance to stay playing with friends). I'm yet to unlock many characters, so it would be cool to have some in-app purchases to buy my favorite characters.”
