    • “This game has a surprisingly great blend of survival, horror, exploration, retro shooter, and interesting train mechanics.”
    • “The actual gameplay mechanics feel good, shooting is satisfying with the gore gibs and gun feedback, the guns are tiered well and the bone ability upgrades are sweet (the jump->crouch slide with the pelvis bone upgrade is awesome for getting around).”

  • graphics

    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are praised for their unique late 90s aesthetic, creating a somber and oppressive atmosphere that enhances the game's nostalgic and immersive experience. The visual style, combined with detailed environments and a cohesive art direction, stands out positively compared to similar budget or genre titles. Overall, the graphics effectively complement the gameplay and mood, contributing to a fun and engaging experience.

    • “Graphics are great, sounds are great, story is great and gameplay is awesome!”
    • “This is better than most 'fully released' games of similar aesthetic/budget/genre.”
    • “The map and environments are cool to explore, the atmosphere feels somber and oppressive in a way that reminds me of the original Stalker games, especially love the music which fits perfectly with the feeling from the artstyle.”
    • “You can expect hilarious late 90s graphics and physics, a scavenger hunt with no handholding, and a game you only get better at by playing more.”

  • atmosphere

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game delivers a compelling and immersive atmosphere that blends spooky, somber, and oppressive tones, enhanced by eerie zombies, evocative music, and minimalist world-building. Its well-designed map and environments provide a fantastic backdrop that invites exploration, creating a rich and engaging experience reminiscent of classic atmospheric shooters. Overall, the atmosphere strongly complements the gameplay, making the game deeply absorbing and memorable.

    • “It has a surprisingly freaky atmosphere for such a ridiculous premise, and the zombies are honestly kinda spooky.”
    • “The atmosphere, gameplay loop, mostly wordless world-building, and awesome map are all fantastic.”
    • “The map and environments are cool to explore. The atmosphere feels somber and oppressive in a way that reminds me of the original STALKER games, especially with music that fits perfectly with the art style.”

  • humor

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is quirky and nostalgic, featuring playful, unexpected moments like a "meat bike" that leads to chaotic crashes and breakdance-like animations. It leans on late 90s-style graphics and physics for a comedic, retro vibe that some players find amusing while others may not.

    • “Furthermore, I personally found this funny but some people may not like it: on day 2 or 3 they gave me a "meat bike" which was really janky and fast, making me crash into trees and breakdance like a pimp in the mid 80s to 'You Spin Me Right Round' by Dead or Alive.”
    • “You can expect hilarious late 90s graphics and physics, a scavenger hunt with no handholding, and a game you only get better at by playing more.”

  • story

    • “The map and environments are cool to explore, the atmosphere feels somber and oppressive in a way that reminds me of the original S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games. I especially love the music, which fits perfectly with the feeling conveyed by the art style.”
    • “The soundtrack is good.”

  • stability

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game exhibits notable stability issues typical of early access, with frequent glitches causing unexpected deaths and inconsistent functionality.

    • “This is definitely in early access, you can tell. I died multiple times due to glitches, and things wouldn't always work the way they should.”

  • replayability

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Replayability is highly praised, with each run contributing to overall progress and the gun shop feature enhancing the sense of advancement, though the aspect is still evolving.

    • “It's definitely still a work in progress, but with where it's at the replayability is insane, with each run getting you closer to the end objective and the gun shop adding a nice touch of progression.”
