โThe story already is interesting.โ
โThe story unfolds to become a captivating challenge.โ
โThe story is quite immersive too and the gameplay, although very simple, is very fun.โ
โThe story is clichรฉ, nothing above average.โ
โThe downside of the game is that some of the missions (like skybar) are way too difficult to nearly impossible to complete and you can't move on if you don't complete the missions.โ
โThe story ends with a 'to be continued', which is annoying.โ

The gameplay of this sniper game has received mixed reviews, with many praising its realistic mechanics, engaging story, and smooth controls. However, players have expressed frustration over the energy system that limits playtime, the frequency of ads, and the difficulty of certain missions, which can detract from the overall experience. Despite these issues, the game is often described as immersive and enjoyable, making it a standout in the mobile sniper genre.
โThis game is amazing, I love how realistic (in terms of gameplay) and that you have to offset the crosshair slightly to kill an enemy.โ
โSuperb and interesting gameplay, with the multiple weapons, scopes, modes, attachments and more!โ
โThe gameplay is awesome, and some levels are really hard to finish which doesn't let you go until the end of the game.โ
โThe gameplay is lacking and full of 0.1 second must-be-perfect shots.โ
โThis game sucks, you can't even get through a mission without having to go through several ads, it totally breaks immersion.โ
โThe gameplay is so bad you fail, especially the mission below the bridge.โ

The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with players expressing frustration over the excessive number of unskippable ads that interrupt gameplay, often after every level or failed attempt. While some users acknowledge the need for ads in a free game and appreciate the option to pay for a premium version to eliminate them, many feel that the current ad frequency detracts significantly from the overall experience, leading to a perception of the game as a cash grab. Overall, the consensus is that the intrusive ads severely impact enjoyment, with numerous players suggesting that reducing their frequency or improving their integration would enhance the game's appeal.
โGameplay: 9/10, kinda hard to get the hang of, but stuff like range finder and wind gauge decrease the difficulty greatly, and don't cost any real money. You can buy premium stuff like special guns, infinite energy, no ads, etc. Really good.โ
โGreat storyline and gameplay, graphics are okay, but the thing I love most is that the cost of premium is up to you. You can pay whatever suits you and still get the premium feel with extra cash and no ads.โ
โIf you pay a flat fee for no ads, you just get a pretty fun sniper game with some unlocks and such.โ
โThe game starts fun, but the good stuff is all locked behind paywalls, which is annoying, and you get ads after almost every level.โ
โThe reason this will not be a 5-star game is because of the unavoidable, annoying, and unskippable ads.โ
โThe game is entertaining, but the ads are extremely intrusive and ruin the experience.โ

The stability of the game has received mixed reviews, with many users reporting frequent glitches and bugs that disrupt gameplay, particularly during shooting sequences. While some players praise the graphics and overall fun, they express frustration over unskippable ads and control issues that can hinder the experience. Overall, the game shows potential but suffers from stability problems that detract from its enjoyment.
โI love this game! The graphics are so cool, there are no glitches, and the sound effects are very good.โ
โGood app, action-packed, and no glitches. It's the best! 10 stars for the great assassin story.โ
โSometimes when you shoot, your aim randomly glitches so you miss the target and fail the mission, which wouldn't be a big deal if you could just restart, but you can't since you will need to wait a few minutes for a timer.โ
โYou shoot two of the guys, then it freezes. You have to pause and unpause and try to shoot them before they shoot you; it's very, very hard.โ
โThe game is really fun, but it's really buggy.โ

Overall, the game's optimization is a mixed bag; while many players praise its smooth performance and good graphics, some report issues on larger screens and specific devices, indicating that it may not be fully optimized for all formats.

โGreat story, great storytelling, well optimized, fun gameplay and it never gets old.โ
โThis game is awesome and runs smoothly. I like the unique graphics and variety in gameplay thanks to all the developers.โ
โThe game needs optimization, though.โ
โIt's a fun game overall, but the doorman mission is nearly impossible if you don't have the reflexes of a ninja on performance-enhancing drugs, so please add a more detailed hint or an option to skip.โ
โVery poorly optimized for large screen phones; disappointing.โ

Many find the blend of serious storytelling with comedic elements engaging, contributing to a memorable gaming experience. Overall, the humor is seen as a highlight for those who enjoy a lighthearted approach amidst action and adventure.
โA very great game, hard missions, nice story till now and the interface is really great and easy to understand, but the thing is the story that makes me play with interest and some funny lines in the story are also hilarious.โ
โI don't even believe you're the real creators of the game, they at least made it funny and it made you feel emotion.โ
โBest sniper game ๐๐ storyline was so interesting and funny ๐โ

Overall, the game offers a solid replayability factor with a variety of content, missions, and a leveling system that encourages players to improve their skills. However, the presence of ads and an energy system can detract from the experience, leading some players to feel that while the game is enjoyable, it may not be highly addictive or consistently replayable. Despite these drawbacks, many users appreciate the challenge and variety, making it a worthwhile experience for free mobile gamers.
โGreat game for free mobile gamers, personally I play for the story but the game itself is packed with content, replay value, simple yet challenging gameplay, and a 'level up' system (you earn cash to buy better gear and rifles).โ
โThe replay value is also great and you can challenge yourself to get better and better, honing your reflexes over time.โ
โProbably the best 2D sniper game on the Play Store, nice presentation, a lot of variety and replayability including missions where you use a pistol and rifle.โ
โIt's not addictive, but it's also not replayable.โ
โThe ads in between the failed missions really give a bad experience, and the interest fades as mostly they are playable ads or long ads. A better solution would be to make just one image ad that can be cut without waiting between missions.โ

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be a mixed experience; while initial missions are enjoyable and rewarding, they quickly become tedious and frustrating as players are forced to grind for better equipment, particularly rifles. The grind can feel excessive, especially when limited by daily attempts, but some players suggest that purchasing the premium package can alleviate some of the grind. Overall, the game is seen as fun but marred by a reliance on grinding that can detract from the overall enjoyment.
โMissions start out fun and rewarding but soon turn to grindy and luck-based.โ
โKinda hard to beat missions with old rifles, so must keep grinding to upgrade your rifle.โ
โNice game, a bit grindy and tedious at some points but still nice.โ
