The story aspect of the game is perceived as having potential, but is hindered by significant technical issues, particularly related to mission accessibility and network requirements. Players express frustration over being unable to engage with missions and achievements, which detracts from the overall experience. While the retro style is appreciated, the execution of the mission system and level design leaves much to be desired.
“Please fix the resource missions so that the game does not keep asking for a network connection that already exists and I'll give you the other 2 stars you deserve for this reliable 'ol' skool' style arcade action shooter.”
“Great game found one issue so far, can't deploy people on missions from barracks even though I have plenty above the requirements.”
“The mission part of the game has potential, but the manager part is just a mess...”
“Goog game but not good level design and story.”

The monetization aspect of the game has received mixed feedback, with players appreciating the lack of intrusive pop-up ads and smooth gameplay, but expressing frustration over the reliance on ads for rewards and the limited availability of the battle pass and events. Many users wish for a more balanced approach that allows for enjoyable gameplay without excessive spending or watching repetitive ads. Overall, while the game is enjoyable, the monetization strategy could benefit from improvements to enhance player experience.
“Wish you game designers would at least make 1 out of 10 games playable without having to spend tons of cash or watch hundreds of the same lame repeated ads.”
“Game keeps glitching and kicking me off after watching ads for rewards and then of course I don't receive the rewards (about 100k of coin and like 5k of game cash).”
“Ads take way too long to present an 'X' for exiting the ad.”
