Overall, the gameplay is described as fun, addictive, and easy to understand, with many players appreciating the retro graphics and smooth animations. However, some users criticize certain mechanics, such as auto-running and pay-to-progress elements, which can hinder the experience. While the controls are generally seen as simple and effective, there are calls for improvements and additional features to enhance player control and engagement.
- “Great experience, actual gameplay is great, could be improved :)”
- “The pixel animations are beautifully smooth and full of life and the gameplay is very simple and easy to get used to.”
- “Addictive and polished gameplay and graphics”
- “Also, the missions will lock and you will be unable to play and have to wait 9 minutes, which is an incredibly stupid mechanic.”
- “But the problem is with the gameplay; the character auto-runs, which is fine, but most of the time it leads to situations that cannot be passed until the player's character stops, resulting in death. This is why many comments here are demanding better movement controls.”
- “More work needs to be put into the mechanics.”

The game's story aspect is minimal, primarily consisting of a series of missions with varying goals rather than a cohesive narrative. Players express frustration with the lack of a retry option after failing missions, the repetitive nature of the missions, and the absence of a dedicated story mode. While some enjoy the challenge of the missions, many feel that the game would benefit from more diverse content and better rewards for completing difficult tasks.
- “Game isn't really my cup of tea, but if you like endless runners with missions, then this is the game for you.”
- “Good mission-based runner.”
- “I like the game controls, the missions, and the old retro feel!”
- “It doesn't have a story; instead, they give you like 4 or 5 levels with different goals, and after completing them, they give you another set of levels.”
- “Could have added a story mode and the ability to move backwards.”
- “Whenever I reach the end of a mission/stage/infiltration, nothing pops up, such as mission complete or to advance.”

The monetization strategy of the game heavily relies on intrusive and often unskippable ads, which many players find frustrating and disruptive to gameplay. While some users appreciate the free-to-play model and understand the need for ads, the overwhelming consensus is that the frequency and nature of the ads detract significantly from the overall experience. Players have expressed a desire for options to reduce or eliminate ads, such as a paid ad-free version.
- “Great game but ads that are nearly unskippable are annoying; also, touch controls aren't as responsive as they need to be for this game.”
- “Now my only complaint is the restriction to play by barring me with ads. I know you need to make money, so I understand trying to find a place to put them, but fundamental progression is well done so far.”
- “Terrible loud and abrasive ads ruining the game.”
