    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews from users, with many praising the visuals as "amazing" and "cool," while others criticize them as "pathetic" or "poor." Some players appreciate the game's ability to run smoothly on lower-end devices, but there are frequent calls for improvements, particularly in realism and detail. Overall, while the graphics are generally considered above average for a mobile game, there is a consensus that further enhancements are needed to meet player expectations.

    • “Amazing gameplay, detailed rendered graphics to classic CS maps, upgrades that add a great personalized touch.”
    • “This game is really great, I love the graphics!”
    • “The graphics are now pathetic, very slow now.”

    • “The graphics were set low, 60 fps and even on a simple 4 v 4 intro mission, the controls failed to function properly.”
  • monetization623 mentions

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of ads that disrupt gameplay. Many players report being bombarded with forced ads after every match, often leading to frustration and a diminished gaming experience. Additionally, the game is perceived as heavily pay-to-win, with in-game purchases required to progress effectively, further alienating free-to-play users.

    • “It's a very fun game to play and surprisingly there is literally no ads, so that's great and I recommend this game.”
    • “Awesome, there are no ads and there are multiple game modes.”
    • “Good no ads, recommended.”
    • “The most disgusting pay-to-win shooter for Android that's full of ads. Unplayable unless you buy something with real money, as your damage and HP scales with points. I strongly discourage anyone from downloading this game who wants to play a fair and free shooter. Oh, and the pop-ups after every single round (3 mins) have a 30s+ ad that's unskippable. You have to watch it, and after every match, the game asks you to buy a pack (3x). These ads are 3s+ and skippable after, horrible experience.”
    • “Game experience considerably decreases in the free version once you play for a while with the intention that developers specifically are pushing players to opt for in-app purchases by introducing the need for gun points for upgrades, etc.”
    • “This game could be so much fun if it wasn't for the horrible pay-to-win mechanics and 30-second ads after every 3-minute match.”
  • gameplay258 mentions

    The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players praising its smooth mechanics, enjoyable controls, and engaging graphics. However, several users have reported issues such as bugs, lag, and a prevalence of bots, which detract from the overall experience. Additionally, concerns about balance, pay-to-win elements, and the need for more diverse game modes have been highlighted, indicating that while the gameplay has potential, it requires further refinement and updates.

    • “Amazing gameplay, detailed rendered graphics to classic CS maps, upgrades that add a great personalized touch.”
    • “I love this game so much, the graphics, the gameplay and it runs so smoothly, it's great. I love when games have ragdoll physics too like this.”
    • “Great game, good graphics, pretty simple gameplay, enjoyable.”
    • “Even after having a stable connection, it does not complete the gameplay. The irony is that all it adds is playing without any disturbance; the only problem is with the battle. When I start a battle, after 20 to 30 seconds, it shows 'no internet, try again.'”
    • “I enjoy the game when it decides to work, but most of the time during gameplay, it'll freeze and then I get an 'app isn't responding' message, so I close it and just try again. It would be an amazing game if it wasn't for that.”
    • “The game is too easy and lacks challenging obstacles and diverse game modes. I like how you made more realistic camos for the weapons, but I think the auto-fire mechanic takes the challenge out of the game.”
  • stability102 mentions

    The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with frequent reports of freezing, lagging, and crashing, particularly during special events and after updates. Many players experience glitches that disrupt gameplay, leading to lost progress and frustration.

    • “Often when I enter the special events (which require tickets that regenerate over time or you purchase them), I'll get to the event and the game won't finish loading and freezes, causing me to lose the tickets.”
    • “It's a buggy app, unable to handle its users even with a 4G high-speed internet connection.”
    • “Worst game ever. When we start the app, it freezes and doesn't unfreeze for a full day.”
  • story85 mentions

    The game's storyline is generally perceived as simplistic and easy to follow, with many players expressing a desire for a more developed narrative and unique characters. While the missions are engaging, players frequently encounter issues with mission resets, server lag, and excessive advertisements, which detract from the overall experience. Many reviewers suggest incorporating a dedicated story mode and more diverse mission types to enhance gameplay and provide a richer context.

  • music21 mentions

    The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the inability to mute it completely, as it continues to play even when set to 0%. Some users enjoy the Christmas theme but feel it should be more versatile, while others find the music distracting and prefer sound effects like footsteps and gunfire. Overall, the music's implementation has been criticized for causing crashes and lag, detracting from the overall gameplay experience.

    • “Have enjoyed the music apps, the games online, critical strike will keep you interested, try it, you'll see.”
    • “Good graphics and control music and background voice is well.”
    • “Awesome gameplay, good graphics and smooth fps but there is a bug that keeps the music playing when you turn it off, please fix this.”
    • “The music won't stop even if it is adjusted to 0% (I need no music, footsteps and gunfire are more important than that). Plus, the lagging is now real (activate the scope then try to look at anything). Looks like the graphics are downgraded (file size, what for?). This latest update sucks.”
    • “Awesome gameplay, good graphics, and smooth FPS, but there is a bug that keeps the music playing when you turn it off. Please fix this.”
    • “Music volume 0 doesn't work; music plays anyway.”

    • “The game is really funny, like the cat weapon.”
  • grinding6 mentions

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and frustrating, particularly due to unbalanced matchmaking and the requirement to purchase every weapon to access desired firearms. While some appreciate the variety of activities and the quality of skins available, many feel that the grind detracts from the overall enjoyment, making it one of the most laborious shooters they have experienced.

    • “Matchmaking in this game is completely off-balanced and the grind for upgrades is very tedious.”
    • “This is literally the most tedious shooter I have ever played; you are required to purchase every single weapon even if you don't like it or simply wouldn't want it, only to get to that one firearm.”
    • “Not like Counter-Strike, with many ads and a grinding system, and players must buy a weapon with money.”
  • replayability3 mentions

    Players express a desire for enhanced replayability through more diverse layouts, additional weapon options, and updated graphics. Many feel that the current gameplay lacks excitement and variety, suggesting that improvements in character movement and aiming mechanics could significantly increase the game's appeal and longevity.

    • “The game offers a variety of playable layouts, enhancing the overall replayability and allowing for different strategies with each playthrough.”
    • “With updated graphics and character moves, the game could become more engaging and visually appealing, increasing its replay value.”
    • “The gameplay mechanics could be improved to make it more dynamic and less repetitive, which would significantly enhance the replayability.”
    • “Maybe more playable layouts and the ability to have more than just the one gun prior to starting.”
    • “Make the game better; it's so boring. I would like it if you removed the shooting mechanics. It's not just one place where you aim or look at the enemy. Make it more like other FPS games where the aiming is more dynamic. Change the graphics, and if this is a logo of CS, make it more decent and fun. It feels like a 2009 game.”

    • “The character development feels shallow and uninspired, leaving me disconnected from the story and the characters.”
    • “I was hoping for a rich character arc, but instead, I got one-dimensional characters with no real growth or depth.”
