- “The game is really addictive, it's a pleasure to play, the gameplay is very attractive.”
- “Gameplay-wise, the auto shooter mechanics add a unique twist to the traditional shooter genre.”
- “The concept is interesting, but the gameplay becomes excruciatingly annoying after a while.”
- “Copypaste of Vampire Survivors with bad visual style (looks and feels like a mobile port) and horrible weapon mechanics.”

The monetization aspect of the game is criticized for being essentially an advertisement for "fatalzone" rather than a legitimate game, misleading players by presenting it as a full product. Users express frustration over the practice of publishing demos and ads as separate games, which detracts from genuine developers and misuses marketing space. Overall, the monetization strategy is seen as exploitative and not worth the time or money.
- “If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on YouTube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising.”
- “While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful.”
- “Often developers may choose to incorrectly publish demo/advertisements as separate games as a cheap way to bypass paying Valve for marketing presence on the Steam front page, which may seem clever to them, but it's harmful behavior and it's not good for gamers.”
