    The gameplay is characterized as an above-average on-rails shooter that is easy to pick up, featuring automatic reloading and a mix of infinite ammo for secondary weapons and limited magazines for primary ones. Players appreciate the solid core mechanics, simple controls, and a variety of weapons, though some feel the content may not justify the price. Overall, it offers fun arcade action with a neat art style, but lacks depth.

    • “Above average on-rails shooter, it's easy to get into, understand the mechanics, and use weapons.”
    • “Solid core gameplay, great framerate, simple controls, and a good choice of weapons.”
    • “This is pure arcade action and so the weapon handling, reloading, and mechanics are not realistic.”
    • “Gameplay is easy; reloading is done automatically by lowering your weapons. You have infinite ammo for your secondary weapon (pistols or SMGs as you upgrade) and limited magazines for your primary rifle. More ammo can be found during levels, as well as different weapons like shotgun, heavy MG, and sniper (no scope, just the heavy punch), which will help a lot but also have limited ammo.”
    • “Above average on-rails shooter; it's easy to get into, understand the mechanics, and use weapons.”
  • graphics
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics feature a neat low-poly art style that performs well on a 1080 setup, with several graphical options available. While the animations for enemies are decent, the overall visual experience is not groundbreaking and may not justify the game's price for some players. Despite its limitations, the graphics contribute positively to the gameplay experience.

    • “Performance is excellent on a 1080; the poly graphics help a ton, but that doesn't take away from the experience. The enemies have nice animations when hit, which is much better than other games where enemies are immune to damage until death.”
    • “This game has a neat art style and offers good gameplay with fun shooting mechanics.”
    • “There are several graphical options available.”
    • “Sure, this isn't going to win any game of the year awards, nor will it blow you away with its low-poly graphics.”
  • optimization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization is praised for excellent performance on a 1080 graphics card, with poly graphics enhancing the experience. Additionally, the enemy animations upon taking damage contribute positively to gameplay, contrasting favorably with other titles where enemies are immune until defeated.

    • “Performance is excellent on a 1080; the poly graphics help a ton, but that doesn't take away from the experience. The enemies have nice animations when hit, which is much better than other games where enemies are immune to damage until death.”
