The gameplay has been widely criticized for being unengaging, boring, and lacking polish, with many reviewers noting a lack of variety, challenge, and social interaction. While some players appreciated the smooth controls and mechanics, the overall consensus is that the game feels barebones and fails to deliver an enjoyable experience, particularly due to its multiplayer-only nature and lack of active players. Despite a few positive remarks, the overwhelming sentiment is that the gameplay is subpar and fails to captivate players.
“Took me a while to get a grip on the game mechanics, but with a solid tutorial that shows you what to do and how to do it, it's a game I would happily play again.”
“Great FPS with many servers and nice gameplay.”
“During my few minutes of gameplay, I found the controls to be very responsive.”
“But I can't recommend this game when the gameplay feels unpolished and there's nobody else playing this game.”
“I have not played a game that bored me as much as this. The aesthetic is trying to go for a Halo 4/5 sort of vibe but fails miserably as the gameplay is so barebones that it just feels like two random sci-fi soldiers fighting each other in random locations with no care or time put into the world-building.”
“Gameplay felt really clunky and the abilities were weird.”

The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players noting a lack of detail and world-building that detracts from the overall experience. While a few commend the visuals as decent for a small development team, others criticize the lack of HD support and the inability to adjust graphics settings, leading to a fuzzy appearance. Overall, the aesthetic attempts to emulate a sci-fi vibe but falls short for many players.
“Controls weren't bad and graphics were good for a very small dev team.”
“The graphics are cool, the sound effects are decent, the maps are looking quite good and there is a skill tree that seems to be diverse and easy to use.”
“It's an okay game but improvements in map and brightness would enhance the experience, as the graphics can sometimes feel confusing.”
“Graphics settings can't be changed; there's no proper HD support, and everything is fuzzy or upscaled.”
“No real settings in this game; you can only define graphics in the Unity launcher part.”
“- Generic graphics.”
