The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it fun and immersive, particularly praising the driving mechanics and balanced gameplay. However, many criticize the broken gun mechanics, poor AI, and lack of engaging content, leading to a quickly boring experience. Overall, while there are interesting ideas, the execution feels lacking, making it hard to recommend at full price.
- “The gameplay is really immersive.”
- “The gameplay is interesting.”
- “Gameplay consists of a free-for-all battle between players and AI, with one kill equaling one point - more points put you higher on the leaderboard, and allow you to use more sprites or color options for your character.”
- “PlayStation 1 had better graphics, the gun mechanics are completely broken (like sniper doesn't kill on headshots) and you'll be stuck playing with bots because online is dead.”
- “Pure and simple, this is a Unity asset-flip with very little work put into it, and it's bad... not that special kind of humorously bad that's almost good (say, Bad Rats or Leisure Suit Larry) but the kind of bad in which gameplay has no intrinsic value whatsoever.”
- “Random 'events' add some variety to gameplay, but they're as flavorless as you'd expect given the basic gameplay.”

The graphics of the game have received largely negative feedback, with many users comparing them unfavorably to older systems like the PlayStation 1 and describing them as cartoonish and poor. While some players appreciate the fun gameplay mechanics, they note that the visual quality detracts from the overall experience, with issues like aiming and art style further compounding the problem. Overall, the graphics are seen as a significant drawback, overshadowing some of the game's more enjoyable elements.
- “Like Call of Duty but with good graphics and a third-person perspective.”
- “The graphics melted my eyes; the gameplay was so realistic that I thought I was going to die, and you can drive cars.”
- “PlayStation 1 had better graphics; the gun mechanics are completely broken (like the sniper doesn't kill on headshots), and you'll be stuck playing with bots because online is dead.”
- “The graphics are a bit cartoony and poor, but the game's fun once you've got the hang of it.”
- “The art style feels off, and the gameplay gets boring quickly. I paid full price for this game; as I understand it, you can get it with a coupon. If you have a coupon, this game may be worth it.”

The humor in the game is described as both hilarious and absurd, with players often finding themselves outsmarted by the AI's ridiculous antics. While some appreciate the unintentional comedy of its clunky mechanics, others feel it falls short of being entertainingly bad, lacking the charm of other poorly executed games. Overall, it seems to be a mixed bag, with potential for laughs in a social setting but not much substance.
- “The players seem very hilarious and dumb; the AI almost outplays them with its countless attempts to use an RPG as a shotgun. XD”
- “It's clunky beyond belief but would make for a hilarious LAN party (if only it had an intentional LAN mode).”
- “Well, the game is quite funny.”

- “However, it is a very buggy game and does not encourage us in any way.”

The story emphasizes resilience and the unpredictability of life, highlighting the importance of perseverance in the face of adversity. However, the gameplay focuses more on combat and destruction, with limited narrative depth or player control over the story's progression.
- “The moral of the story is that you never know what life has in store for you. If I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
