The gameplay is generally perceived as simplistic and lacking depth, with only about 10 minutes of content that feels unpolished and confusing at times. While the controls are smooth and player feedback is decent, the scarcity of ammo detracts from the overall experience, leaving players to search for resources rather than engaging with enemies effectively.
“The gameplay feels very smooth, providing nice player feedback and control feel, making up for some confusing and unpolished moments.”
“The gameplay is simplistic but engaging, allowing players to focus on the action and strategy.”
“The controls are intuitive, making it easy to jump in and enjoy the experience right away.”
“The gameplay feels rather bland with nothing of note. The art style looks cool at a glance but isn't anything special, especially when you realize the devs traced the weapons from Doom and the cover art from Crysis. The music is serviceable but nothing amazing.”
“Roughly 10 minutes of gameplay... that's all there is.”
“The gameplay is very simplistic, but the issue is there is not enough ammo on the ground, so I just ran around the map looking for something to actually engage with the enemies.”
