- The game features an immersive movement system that allows players to jog in place, making it feel like a true workout and enhancing the overall experience.
- The throwing mechanics are satisfying and responsive, contributing to enjoyable gameplay both in multiplayer and against AI.
- The game is well-designed for team-based play, and while it can be played solo, it shines when played with friends.
- The player base is small, leading to limited multiplayer opportunities, which can detract from the competitive experience.
- Controls can feel unnatural, especially during actions like sidestepping or throwing, which may hinder gameplay for some users.
- The game does not support WMR, and the graphics may not appeal to everyone, as they lean towards a simplistic, TRON-like style.
