The game's story is generally well-received, with many players appreciating its engaging plot and character development, particularly in the context of a zombie apocalypse. However, frequent crashes and the requirement to replay chapters on harder difficulties to progress have frustrated users, detracting from the overall experience. While the graphics and voice acting are praised, the repetitive nature of the story and technical issues have led to mixed feelings about its execution.
“The story is amazing and very immersive.”
“Great graphics, easy to maneuver controls, lovely storyline.”
“The game is awesome, the devs should fix the game assets in some of the missions tho.”
“However, after completing the 17th chapter of the normal campaign, the game will make you restart the entire story in hard mode to get to the rest of the story.”
“I was having fun until I hit a weird bug where the game kept crashing at the same spot in story chapter 7.”
“It's a good game, but I rate it 3 stars because the game always crashes every time I'm on story mode. Please fix it!”

The gameplay of the game is generally praised for its fun mechanics, smooth controls, and engaging graphics, making it enjoyable for players. However, many users express frustration with repetitive elements, lack of character customization, and frequent crashes that disrupt the experience. While the core gameplay is solid and entertaining, improvements in stability and variety could enhance the overall enjoyment.
“Great gameplay with easy controls and it's honestly super fun.”
“The gameplay is great, story is phenomenal, controls are also fluid.”
“I love the gameplay so far, and any game that doesn't force you to watch ads every other minute is worth trying out.”
“Weapon upgrades did not provide much of a difference in gameplay; level 20 guns in the middle of the game perform the same as level 1 guns at the start.”
“The game starts very good, there's plenty of voice acting, good and long notes that describe the story and vehicles gameplay, then the game gets pretty grindy, the notes are badly written and the voice acting is also rare.”
“This game is just superb but it crashes in the middle of nowhere after every six minutes of gameplay, forcing you to start all over again, which ruins the interest towards the game.”

The graphics of the game have received widespread praise for their charming pixel art style, vibrant animations, and nostalgic retro feel, which many players find appealing. However, some users have reported issues with performance, including crashes and lag, particularly when high-quality graphics settings are enabled.

“The more I play the game, the more I'm surprised at what it has to offer. I love the pixel art graphics and the bosses look awesome.”
“I was blown away by the graphics and the gameplay style.”
“It's ridiculous that the game itself runs in pixel graphics, then loads a very high quality video intro; it won't work on my device because of this.”
“But the graphics is the problem with it ... you shouldn't have made it a pixel game.”
“The gameplay is great but the graphics are poor; if you're reading this, please work hard on that because I love this game so much.”

The monetization model of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating the lack of intrusive ads and the option to watch ads for rewards, while others criticize the high prices of in-app purchases and the feeling of being forced to pay to progress. Although some users report occasional crashes when attempting to watch ads, the general consensus is that the game is enjoyable and not overly reliant on monetization tactics, making it a more favorable experience compared to typical mobile games. Overall, players seem to value the balance between optional monetization and gameplay enjoyment.
“Last but not least, the game has no ads virtually... unless you want to watch ads for stuff; there are no pop-ups... overall, A+ game.”
“The microtransactions are unobtrusive, and you can even watch ads for extra loot.”
“You guys have in-app purchases, but you are also very generous with drop rates and gifts, and you deserve 5 stars.”
“Having to play through the same campaign several times gets boring fast and feels a bit like a cash grab.”
“The monetization sucks, but I guess we've all grown accustomed to that in the cellphone game landscape, which is a shame because you feel like you aren't getting your value by playing the game and either pay or quit.”
“Okay... gameplay was nice... but I have to say I'm disappointed after waiting for a long time for its release... I mean... it's kind of hard to gain coins... and the game is a pay-to-win type thing... as you cross level 20... you gain only 10 bullets from a single zombie or by breaking stuff... that's so annoying because you actually have to shoot more than a hundred bullets to kill a single boss.”

“You guys just gave up on this game, I loved it for a while but this game just got grindy and repetitive.”

“The recent update was just absolutely terrible; the irony in 'optimized game stability' is so accentuated, it's hard to ignore. All it does now is kick me out before it even loads completely.”

“Not optimized for the latest Android software.”
