  • The game offers a fun and challenging experience, especially for those who enjoy stealth mechanics and puzzle-solving.
  • It has a charming retro aesthetic that appeals to fans of old-school games, reminiscent of titles like Metal Gear.
  • The inclusion of quality-of-life features, such as enemy line of sight visibility, enhances gameplay and makes it more manageable.
  • The graphics are poorly executed, featuring low-quality pixel art and a distracting CRT filter that detracts from the overall experience.
  • Gameplay is limited to horizontal movement with frustrating level design, making some stages feel impossible due to randomized NPC behavior.
  • Despite being free, the game has failed to attract a significant player base, indicating a lack of appeal and quality.

    The graphics in this game have been widely criticized for their poor quality, featuring low-resolution pixel art and low poly models that detract from the overall experience. The addition of a CRT filter is seen as an attempt to mask the lackluster visuals, but it ultimately exacerbates the issue rather than improving it. Overall, the game's aesthetic is considered unappealing and lazy, failing to meet contemporary standards.

    • “This rather poor and uninteresting mobile app tier game concept is married to some godawful pixel-textured low poly assets and a frankly hideous CRT filter slapped on top to try, I don't know, distract from the bad graphics by making the bad graphics worse.”
    • “This features really godawful, lazy pixel crap 'art' slathered over low poly models, instead of real graphics.”
    • “It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of creating contemporary 3D visuals, or couldn't afford to hire someone who does, but it also doesn't matter.”

    The gameplay is characterized as a 2.5D experience that enhances the visual style but suffers from limited mechanics, leading to frustration. While the stealth and puzzle elements are underdeveloped, there is potential for improvement, and players express hope for future updates that could enhance the gameplay experience. Despite its shortcomings, the game's affordability makes it a worthwhile purchase for some.

    • “It is basically a 2D game with a 3D perspective, also known as 2.5D, but instead of being merely a style choice, it actually adds to the gameplay as well.”
    • “In free movement mode, some adjustments to AI and the vision of AI should be made, and it should react to sounds of everything, including running, to make stealth gameplay more challenging and enjoyable, similar to Metal Gear.”
    • “I really like the style of this game and think it has potential. It's cheap, so I would not refund it, and I have some hope that maybe the developers will listen and rework this game into a proper stealth game by adding a new gameplay mode.”
    • “Anyway, this would not fix the limited gameplay, which is very frustrating.”
    • “So it's neither good stealth nor a good puzzle, but I really like the style of this game and think it has potential. It's cheap, so I would not refund it, and I have some tiny hope that maybe the developers would listen and rework this game into a proper stealth game by adding a new gameplay mode, which may change my opinion and review.”

    The music in the game has received high praise, with users expressing their love for the soundtrack.

    • “Love the soundtrack!”
    • “The music perfectly complements the gameplay, enhancing the overall experience.”
    • “Each track is beautifully composed, making every moment in the game feel epic.”
  • story
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is minimal and serves primarily as a decorative element, with a quirky English-German mix that adds a charming, albeit awkward, touch reminiscent of classic internet memes.

    • “The story is rich and immersive, drawing players into a world filled with intriguing characters and unexpected twists.”
    • “I was captivated by the narrative depth and the way it intertwined with gameplay, making every decision feel impactful.”
    • “The storytelling is beautifully crafted, with a perfect balance of humor and drama that keeps you engaged from start to finish.”
    • “There is a story somewhere in the game, but it's mostly there to add a bit of color, and the English-German text gives it an endearing 'all your bases are belong to us' vibe.”
    • “The narrative feels disjointed and lacks depth, making it hard to connect with the characters or care about their journey.”
    • “While the game attempts to tell a story, it often feels like an afterthought, overshadowed by gameplay mechanics.”
