Core gameplay is fun, arcade-style, and reminiscent of classic games like Missile Command.
Decent graphics and animations with a nice artistic direction and sound effects.
Satisfying progression system with unlockable weapons, upgrades, and a campaign spanning multiple European countries.

Being a simplistic mobile port, it suffers from poor control schemes and limited customization for PC gamers.
Gameplay and weapon upgrades lack depth and strategy, leading to repetitive and sometimes frustrating twitch-based gameplay.
Technical shortcomings such as lack of options for resolution or graphics settings, one repetitive soundtrack, and overall lack of polish reduce the PC experience.

The gameplay is fun, challenging, and features solid mechanics with an enjoyable core action experience reminiscent of classic arcade games. However, it tends to be simple, with limited strategy and repetitive, mobile-style design, sometimes hindered by frustrating controls and lack of polish.

The monetization is criticized as overly simplistic and reminiscent of a mobile cash grab, with limited content and features that make the game feel like a hollow, stripped-down port rather than a fully developed PC title.
- “Simplistic port of a mobile title with sawed off monetization leaves a hollow shell in the end.”
- “Hills of Glory 3D is a mobile app that's been dumped on Steam as if it was a real PC game (it's not). It's a cash grab from greedy mobile developers.”
