The graphics of the game are generally considered good, with a stylized aesthetic that pays homage to the Metal Slug series, though it ultimately falls short of that classic's quality. While the character movements lack fluidity, they are deemed above average for an indie title. Overall, the visuals stand out as the game's strongest aspect, despite the gameplay being described as simplistic and geared towards a younger audience.
- “The graphics are quite good, and although the movements of the characters are not fluid, they are above average for indie games.”
- “The graphics are stylized, the enemies have different variations of attacks.”
- “I thought, what could possibly go wrong with those graphics and the price of 21 cents? I am not generally against using a mobile game formula on a gem like Metal Slug.”
- “Of the pros, I can only single out the graphics; the rest is not interesting and straightforward. You go from point A to point B. The game itself is built on shooting and leveling up skills (it's like a walker for children). Do not buy the game if you are not 10-12 years old.”
- “The graphics are stylized, but the enemies have different variations of attacks.”
