The game's story is engaging and unfolds gradually through a series of diverse missions, each introducing new mechanics and challenges. Players appreciate the blend of strategy and combat, with a narrative that maintains a sense of mystery and progression. While the difficulty can vary, the overall experience is enhanced by smooth gameplay and well-executed mechanics, making the missions both rewarding and satisfying.
- “It has a riveting story with the right amount of mystery, fantastic gameplay, and a smooth difficulty progression.”
- “The game offers a campaign with demanding missions and 3 hidden levels, taking you through diverse environments as you fight the invaders.”
- “I know that the devs want to carry the concept that in war, win or lose, you must continue to the next mission and there is no such thing as retries, but it's pros and cons. It's great, but for some people that are a little bit slow to learn, it may be a bit more overwhelming, especially since the next mission could be harder, particularly with much of the strategy or function that you need to learn as you go. The only option to replay is just resetting the account.”
- “The game offers a campaign with demanding missions and three hidden levels, taking you through diverse environments as you fight the invaders.”
- “Plus, there’s clearly an underlying plot unfolding - I can feel it as I progress through the missions, though I haven’t finished the game yet.”

The gameplay is generally praised for its engaging and rewarding mechanics, particularly the innovative use of drones and a smooth difficulty progression. While some users noted issues with clunky controls and pathing for individual troops, the overall experience is described as immersive and fun, making it a strong addition for fans of tactical strategy games. Minor bugs exist but do not significantly detract from the gameplay experience.
- “Offers great, tense and rewarding gameplay.”
- “It has a riveting story with the right amount of mystery, fantastic gameplay and a smooth difficulty progression.”
- “Combining drone mechanics with a strategy game set in today's realities perfectly shows what war looks like.”
- “Controls can be clunky at times; individual trooper pathing is not quite there yet. I would like to see them able to vault over sandbags or low walls. The drone you control can be a little slow at times, and I would like the ability to pan the camera up and down. Sometimes they'll go places they were not ordered to or not continuously suppress a given position, which is critical given it's a core game mechanic. I would like the teams to properly lay fire where I order them to keep their comrades alive.”
- “There are some minor bugs, but they don't affect the gameplay much.”
- “The gameplay felt kind of unhurried at first, but you quickly get into the mechanics, and it's quite engaging and pretty immersive.”
