- The game has full controller support, which can enhance the experience for those who prefer using a gamepad.
- The game feels unfinished and poorly put together, resembling an Early Access title with many glitches and incomplete features.
- Animal AI is lacking, with creatures behaving in unrealistic and repetitive patterns, making encounters feel unengaging.
- There is no story, character customization, or meaningful objectives, leading to a boring and uninspired gameplay experience.
