- “Overall a pretty fun game! I love that all the characters seem to have pretty unique primary abilities that affect their play style, and overall the character design/aesthetic is cool.”
- “+cool aesthetic”
- “A lot of early release games or new games that launch these days seem to have a lot of balancing issues or graphical problems.”

The game's story aspect is minimal, lacking a central narrative, but it offers engaging gameplay through optional quests and secrets on each map, including collectible trophies and unique challenges. Players can explore diverse environments and face various enemies, though the time constraints on quests can be frustrating. Overall, it's more about casual fun and exploration than a structured storyline.
- “Each map eventually reveals its own secrets and missions, wherein completing special tasks can unlock new locations and collectible trophies.”
- “There are quests within the runs (that are optional, you can just battle the timer per level as well), an eclectic array of enemies (including dinosaurs!), buildings that can be entered, hidden portals to other maps, some unique movement options, and rock-solid graphics with glitch-free gameplay.”
- “It's kind of weird that the graveyard was the only place I found actual quests, and it's kind of lame because there's only 10 minutes to do them on the map, so you have to dead sprint to the quest location or you have no shot at completing them.”
- “Cons: there is no storyline to this game.”
- “This game isn't likely to be your main title, but if you're looking for a great time to just kick back with a few friends and run around maps with no required story objectives, I highly recommend picking this one up.”

The game's replayability is mixed; while it offers significant potential for repeated playthroughs, the lack of Steam achievements diminishes its incentive for some players.

The game's stability is currently hindered by inconsistent hit detection, leading to players taking damage from unseen sources and enemies. Additionally, the ability to exploit buildings as choke points raises concerns about balance and gameplay integrity.
- “Hit detection is rather buggy at the moment, as you sometimes take damage from unknown sources or enemies not even near you. Additionally, buildings can be used to just sit in one spot the whole game as a choke point.”
