Players appreciate the addition of new maps and gameplay features in the early access game, particularly the "tag grab" round, which enhances the multiplayer experience. However, there is a desire for in-app purchases to unlock favorite characters more easily, indicating a potential area for monetization improvement.
“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 so I can buy my favorite characters.”
