The gameplay is generally enjoyable and easy to learn, offering fast-paced and humorous experiences, particularly in co-op mode. However, it suffers from a lack of replayability due to limited player agency and a short overall lifespan, with many players completing it in just a few hours. While the difficulty can ramp up quickly, the game feels basic at first but can become solid with the right perks and weapons.
“Good, fast, and funny gameplay.”
“Simple and easy to learn mechanics, but the difficulty rises quite quickly.”
“At first, I was complaining how basic this game felt, but after giving it more of a chance, the gameplay is pretty solid and quite challenging on average if you're not getting the right perks and weapons.”
“Good for a couple of hours with friends on console, but the shaky gameplay and the lack of replayability (through complete lack of player agency except in the XP upgrade, which aren't varied enough to provide interesting gameplay).”
“If co-op offers revival as a means of keeping the gameplay healthy, single player mode should also follow the same philosophy.”
“Fun to play, but pretty short lifespan (me and my friend got to the end credits in 3 hours of gameplay).”

The game is enjoyable but suffers from significant optimization issues, including crashes that detract from the experience. Players have expressed a need for a save feature on each floor to mitigate these problems, despite potential impacts on the rogue-lite mechanics. Overall, while it runs smoothly in both online and offline modes, the optimization concerns remain a notable drawback.
“Runs smoothly online and offline”
“So, really fun game, but every floor needs a save feature (even if it affects the roguelite aspect of the game), because this game has crashes and optimization issues that cause crashes.”

The story in the game is minimal and not a focal point, as it primarily serves as a backdrop for the arcade shooter gameplay. Players should not anticipate a deep or engaging narrative.
