    The gameplay is reminiscent of helicopter segments from Call of Duty but suffers from janky controls and a cumbersome menu, making movement and aiming challenging. While the gameplay is simple and can serve as a time killer, it may require some grinding for achievements, and overall, it is considered mediocre with low-quality graphics and sound.

    • “The Steam achievements may require a bit of grinding to obtain; however, that just encourages gameplay.”
    • “Very simple gameplay, and I think it's a good time killer.”
    • “It's basically the helicopter segments from Call of Duty with a janky menu, slightly janky gameplay, and mediocre controls, making it difficult to move and look properly.”
    • “On my point, the graphics are like 8-16 bit, the sounds are bad, and the gameplay is easy. For all of that, I give it a 6/10.”
    • “The gameplay feels unrefined and lacks depth, making it less engaging than I had hoped.”
