The story in the game is criticized for being dull and barely present, with missions feeling repetitive and lacking compelling reasons to engage with the campaign. Players have reported bugs that hinder progress, and the overall gameplay experience is described as basic, with small maps that limit strategic depth. Despite these issues, some players found enjoyment in the skirmish mode, indicating that the game has redeeming qualities outside of its narrative.
- “Great game, completed the missions and got the most out of skirmish. 15 hours of gameplay well spent.”
- “Sure you could invest a lot of resources into building a wall/shield/healer network and creep forward like that, but only in a certain campaign mission have I ever seen the need to do so.”
- “The campaign is just too dull, the story is barely visible, and every mission feels exactly the same.”
- “Fully beat the game on normal. I plan to go back and play again on a higher difficulty; however, this game is so far super basic. There are some flaws, but for the most part, they are easy to counter. This is a short story with short gameplay.”
- “Seems like a nice little game, though I ran into a bug on mission 9 that meant I couldn't complete the mission and continue the campaign.”

- “Each additional unlocked building simply decreased the tempo, which made the gameplay slower.”
- “Gameplay is basically just turret creep: the RTS, but it's nicely slow-paced for someone like me who tends to lose normal RTS games due to watching the units fight.”
- “Concept is suspiciously similar to Radiis, but gameplay is different enough that it's clearly a different game.”
