Gameplay is characterized by a limited variety in maps and a reliance on enemy swarms for difficulty, which can detract from the overall experience. However, the mechanic of upgrading enemies after each wave is praised as an interesting and effective addition that enhances the gameplay. Overall, while some players find the value lacking compared to older AAA titles, the unique upgrade system offers a redeeming quality.
- “I love the mechanic of upgrading your enemies.”
- “The mechanic of having to upgrade the enemies after each wave was an interesting idea and worked well for the gameplay.”
- “Difficulty wise, my only gripe is that more often than not deaths are the result of the swarm of enemies, rather than the upgrades you give enemies offering any significant change to the gameplay, which I think was the intent; still, for the price, I say go for it.”
- “And, while it might seem like I'm digressing, picking up crap like this at say $0.50 and getting 5 minutes of gameplay (because there's not much to this) is way worse value for money than picking up an old AAA game for $5 and getting a hundred hours out of it.”
- “The maps aren't different enough from what I've seen to change the gameplay a significant amount.”
- “Difficulty-wise, my only gripe is that more often than not, deaths are the result of the swarm of enemies, rather than the upgrades you give enemies offering any significant change to the gameplay, which I think was the intent. Still, for the price, I say go for it.”
