The game offers a fun and addictive experience, especially for fans of the original Chronicon, with enjoyable gameplay and satisfying progression.
The developer is actively engaging with the community and implementing feedback, showing potential for future improvements and updates.
The price is considered fair for the amount of content provided, making it a good option for fans of the 'survivors' genre.

The game feels unpolished and lacks depth, with many players noting that it should have been labeled as early access due to its current state.
The early game experience is frustrating, with players feeling weak and overwhelmed by enemy swarms, leading to a lack of motivation to progress.
Compared to other games in the genre, it lacks unique features and creativity, making it feel generic and not worth playing over established titles.

The graphics in the game have received criticism for lacking resolution and customization options, leading to a perception of weak and unappealing abilities compared to the original Chronicon. Additionally, oversized hitboxes detract from the overall visual experience, making the gameplay feel less impactful.
- “No resolution or other graphics options, abilities feel and look weak (which is so strange - the abilities in the original Chronicon feel meaty and look great), hitboxes are way too big... I could go on.”
