The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with players praising the core mechanics, particularly the hookshot and weapon variety, which provide a satisfying experience. However, many criticize the lack of variety in enemies and levels, leading to a short and repetitive gameplay loop. While some find it enjoyable and fun once familiar with the mechanics, others feel it lacks depth and content, making it less engaging overall.
- “Really great game, I love the hookshot mechanic and the shotgun/sniper.”
- “After investing nearly two hours into this game, I can confidently assert that it offers a highly entertaining experience, largely attributable to the ingenious hook mechanic.”
- “Very short but it has some great core movement/shooting mechanics!”
- “Not really worth it, the gameplay is boring as it doesn't have variety whatsoever. The graphics are mediocre; you can only choose low, medium, or high settings without options for light quality, fog, or textures. I haven't played for even 5 minutes and already got bored.”
- “The game is practically raw, with no interesting mechanics and bad graphics.”
- “It also has no more than 30 minutes of gameplay on hard mode.”

- “Also, if you want more FPS, you can't set graphics to low because it will be so dark that you wouldn't see some elements of the terrain.”

The game's optimization has been criticized for causing frequent crashes and performance issues, particularly on certain PCs. Additionally, players have noted a strange visual effect related to the field of view when using the grappling hook, which detracts from the overall experience.
- “The game has a lot of potential, but it suffers from optimization issues that lead to frequent crashes.”
- “I would suggest adjusting the field of view when using the grappling hook, as it stretches the screen to an abnormal level, which can be disorienting.”
- “Despite some optimization challenges, I had an extra fun time playing, although I found the difficulty to be on the easier side.”
- “I don't know if it's just me or maybe my PC is stuttering.”
- “If I could advise changing something, it would be the FOV when using the grappling hook. I had the FOV at max, and every time I hooked onto something, it stretched the screen to an abnormal level. It didn't impact my performance, but it was strange at first contact.”
- “The difficulty: I don't know about others, but either all my hours spent on Doom Eternal made me too good for the hard difficulty (which I doubt), or maybe the game in general is too easy. Either way, I had an extra fun time, so maybe tweak it a little.”
