The gameplay is characterized by its quick and frantic pace, encouraging players to strategically position themselves in combat. While the mechanics are simple and enjoyable, some players express a desire for more maps or a dodge mechanic to mitigate occasional unfairness in map design. Overall, the gameplay is engaging and fun, despite minor criticisms.
“The mechanics are simple, but there's a lot of fun to be had.”
“That's all fairly nitpicky though, as the gameplay itself is good enough to make the game enjoyable despite what may occasionally feel unfair.”
“I'd love to see the inclusion of either more maps or some sort of dodge-like mechanic for when players can't escape threats due to map design.”
“The gameplay itself is quick and frantic as you try to position yourself to kill rather than be killed.”
