The gameplay is rated 6/10, with two primary mechanics involving scavenging for supplies and begging for help, both of which often yield little success. Players quickly find that after a brief adjustment period, the game lacks depth and variety, reducing the experience to mere survival with limited activities.
“The gameplay mechanics involve searching through cars and trash cans for supplies, but these methods often yield little success, as they are frequently empty, and interactions with NPCs can lead to negative outcomes.”
“After a brief adjustment period to the mechanics, I found that the game quickly became repetitive, with limited activities beyond the basic survival elements.”
“Let me explain, there are two main mechanics for getting the supplies you need: looking through cars and trash cans, and begging people. Both of these methods are unlikely to yield anything since the trash cans and cars are usually empty, and if you ask for help, people will often just laugh at you and walk away, or even beat you up.”
“After five minutes of getting used to the mechanics, I walked around to look for anything else to do, and that's when I realized that I've basically done everything there is to do in the game. There's nothing else to do but just survive.”
