The game's story revolves around a protagonist who has lost their memories and must navigate through various levels to regain them, with a mix of main and side quests that often involve basic fetch tasks.

- “Story-wise it's okay: you are stuck in your nightmare, searching for your memories.”
- “This title was obviously done on a budget, no voice acting, the sound design could be better, the story is... meh... but it still has more depth than many games did 20 years ago.”

- “There's not much of a story here though.”

The gameplay is a mixed bag, offering chaotic action and RPG elements like character development and weapon upgrades, but suffers from clunky mechanics and a lack of engaging level design. While some players find it fun initially, many report that it becomes repetitive and frustrating over time, with issues like glitches and awkward controls detracting from the experience. Overall, it provides decent value for its low price, but the enjoyment may wane as players progress.
- “The gameplay is chaotic, the controls are smooth, and the checkpoints are adequate.”
- “It's a fun top-down shooter with solid gameplay, character development mechanics, and tons of weapons.”
- “You can level up armor, weapons, and skills, but for that, you need to collect some in-game currencies or do some side quests, which I think makes the gameplay more fun. You can also do some mini-games and look for hidden secret paths.”
- “Gameplay is pretty boring, level design is not exactly enticing.”
- “Gameplay is annoying: how you move, how you shoot, how you turn left and right is so annoying.”
- “Game mechanics are clumsy.”

Overall, the game lacks polish, which affects the overall user experience.
- “No glitches, crashes, or issues with the game.”
- “No glitches, crashes, or issues with the game.”
- “I was unfortunate enough to play the earlier version of this game (without the 'revival' subtitle) which was a horrible buggy mess; I vowed never to touch this again.”
- “If you're an achievement hunter, pass this game by as it's too buggy.”
- “It seems to have a few bugs (sound glitches, text on quests didn't work properly on one of the quests) and it lacks overall polish. Dying is met with a 'you died' screen before giving you the option to restart, and completing the game goes straight to the credits with no rewarding end sequence. The story is pretty poor, and you don't really end up caring about it; the game is just 'kill everything'.”
