Players can directly shoot enemies with the mouse cursor, adding an interactive element to the tower defense gameplay.
It's a free game that can be completed in about 30 minutes, making it a low-commitment option for casual gamers.

The game lacks strategic depth and clarity, with unclear mechanics for upgrades and no way to scroll the map.
There are performance issues in the post-game, with significant drops in frame rate when too many towers are built.
The final upgrade does not actually provide a conclusive end to the game, leaving players feeling unsatisfied.

The game's optimization is notably poor, particularly in the post-game phase, where performance can drop to single-digit frame rates based on player choices. This significant issue detracts from the overall experience.
- “If you carry on into the post-game, depending on your choices, performance tanks to single FPS.”

The story is minimal and lacks depth, primarily serving as a backdrop for the action of defeating zombies. Players should not anticipate a complex narrative, as the focus is on gameplay rather than storytelling.
- “Just don’t expect any deep story—it's all about smashing zombies!”
