The game is riddled with numerous bugs and glitches, including ammo inconsistencies and gameplay-breaking issues, which significantly affect stability and enjoyment. While some players find it a fun, low-stress time burner, many feel it requires updates and fixes to reach its potential. A minority report no issues, but overall stability remains a major concern.
- “It's not bad but it's very buggy; honestly, it could be pretty good if updated. If you want to mess around for like an hour, I guess you could buy it while it's on sale. I'd rate it around 3/10.”
- “You basically get what you pay for. It is relatively fun to play, but the mechanics are very basic and on top of that, you encounter quite a few glitches and bugs.”
- “To this day, it's extremely buggy to the point of breaking the gameplay entirely.”

The gameplay features smooth movement and solid weapon mechanics, but is hampered by basic mechanics and numerous glitches, particularly in multiplayer and building functions. While the wave-based gameplay and building system offer strategic depth and replayability, frequent bugs and AI issues detract from the overall experience.
- “Great weapon mechanics.”
- “Also, the gameplay and movement are smooth.”
- “The wave-based gameplay is very well done and will provide hours upon hours of fun due to the building aspect, making it so you can always try a new strategy and keeping the game feeling fresh.”
- “It's a shame, but the game's mechanics are deeply flawed.”
- “But the gameplay was dull, the building broke for us several times (unable to place a block in a certain spot where it clearly can be placed), and I even encountered a glitch/bug where all the enemy AI ignored me, 100%, and only went after my friend.”
- “Ok so first let's get into the bad things about the game: multiplayer is currently very unstable, there are an unsensible amount of bugs regarding it that I have run into in my whole 6 hours of gameplay. We wanted to play trios but couldn't even load in, which we believe was more than likely server related issues. When we finally got into the game, 2 of us were invincible due to the game basically not realizing we existed. We were able to shoot and do everything but the enemies wouldn't come after us, and when our other friend died we got a game over because once again the game didn't think we existed.”
