The game's story revolves around a small group of German soldiers investigating strange occurrences in a town, facing off against monsters and aliens, which diverges from traditional war narratives. While the plot is considered intriguing, players note that it can feel repetitive and lacks depth in relation to the broader context of World War II. Overall, the story is seen as enjoyable but somewhat disconnected from historical themes.
“The story sounds pretty cool: 'a small group of German soldiers are sent to a small town to investigate strange activities.'”
“The story writes itself as they face off against monsters, aliens, and other baddies.”
“I've only played solo so far but this is a cool little game; it can get repetitive after a while, but it's definitely an enjoyable game with a decent story as far as I've played.”
“The plot has very little to do with the war as a whole, and you're killing monsters for the most part.”
“Bad sound effects, long boring redundant missions... glad I used TF2 item sales money and not real money.”
“You have to join a story server, which is weird.”

The gameplay is criticized for being repetitive and lacking depth, with limited mechanics that fail to engage players. While there are some interesting elements like sci-fi upgrades and challenges, they are poorly implemented, leading to a sense of imbalance and a rushed development feel. Overall, the gameplay experience is described as boring and unfulfilling.
“The gameplay is very repetitive and not in a fun way that keeps it interesting for me.”
“Very limited gameplay.”
“If gameplay hardly has any redeemable quality, like with what this game has, then it's safe to say that this game was rushed, instead of developed.”
