The gameplay is characterized by an open-world experience reminiscent of Grand Theft Auto, featuring random missions, humor, and a variety of ambitious mechanics. While many players find the gameplay satisfying and unique, especially for an early access title, some criticize it for lacking depth and intuitive controls. Overall, it appeals to those who appreciate indie games with freedom and detail, despite some bugs and the need for further polish.
“It took a bit to get used to a lot of the gameplay elements, but once you do, it's very satisfying.”
“For an early access game, this game has tons of unique game mechanics I haven't really seen before.”
“You do not need to make the gameplay complicated to make it fun.”
“The gameplay isn't that great, and a big sandbox that gives you lots of things is only good if there's a lot of stuff to do with them (H3 VR is a good example of lots of stuff, little to do).”
“Hopefully they will polish and work on mechanics before adding more weapons and stuff.”
“I would recommend everyone who cares about gameplay and action, not about story and a polished feel.”
