    The game's story revolves around a series of drone missions that players find engaging yet repetitive, with many expressing a desire for more diverse and challenging missions. While the gameplay offers a variety of objectives and rewards, players often feel that the missions become too easy or grindy after completing them all, leading to a lack of motivation to continue. Additionally, the frequent advertisements and technical issues, such as game freezes and mission unlock problems, detract from the overall experience.

    • “The missions have outstanding diversity; from strike missions that are quick and tactical, to survival missions that can last for 30 plus minutes and will still be fun.”
    • “I really love this game but on the mission snakebite I can't pass no matter what I try but every other mission I tried I could pass in one go but this one I can't but on everything else it's one of the best games I've played.”
    • “Great game, it's just like the AC130 missions in the Call of Duty Modern Warfare game series.”
    • “The game is not too grindy, and the challenges give you a reason to play those missions all over again, but once you finish the missions and complete the challenges, you should have everything unlocked and most equipment upgraded to max. The regular missions at this point become too easy and there is nothing rewarding you anymore for playing.”
    • “I really like the game but a lot of grind repeating the same missions to get cash. Fun and addictive game but after every mission, adverts are extremely annoying and for me, it's a turn-off.”
    • “It's impossible to pass the rat trap mission if you don't buy extra stuff. The only problem is that the missions where you have to identify targets, all you can do is fire at enemies and hopefully, just hopefully they come out.”

  • stability52 mentions

    The game suffers from significant stability issues, with frequent freezing during loading screens and gameplay, particularly after updates or specific missions.

  • grinding16 mentions

    Overall, players have mixed feelings about the grinding aspect of the game.

The balance between enjoyable gameplay and the necessity of repetitive missions for gear upgrades remains a point of contention.

    • “It's alright as a game concept, but it's too grindy and pay-to-win.”
  • optimization14 mentions

    Overall, players have mixed feelings about the game's optimization. While some praise its smooth performance and graphics, others report significant issues such as freezing during missions, particularly with specific actions like using nukes or airstrikes.

    • “The only real way to advance in the game is to increase weapons performance.”
    • “Everything runs smoothly, tons of combos and upgrades, pretty awesome game.”
    • “This game is great but still needs some performance tweaks like battery life, overheated CPU, and large data amounts!”
    • “The game is overall good, but it's very difficult to complete at the last stage. After upgrading the bomb missiles with cash, it doesn't show that much performance, and you will get defeated by the enemies. The developer made this game only be completed by real money by purchasing gold coins, which is very disappointing.”
    • “I have taken this game from a 5 to a 3 star because of performance issues.”
    • “You can only continue to improve performance at the higher levels with gold bars.”
