The gameplay is generally enjoyable for short sessions, particularly in co-op mode, but suffers from a lack of depth and replayability due to limited player agency and a brief overall experience, with many players completing it in around three hours. While some find the gameplay solid and challenging once they adapt, others note its basic mechanics and the need for more varied upgrades to enhance the experience.
“Good fast and funny gameplay.”
“Fun to play, but pretty short lifespan (me and my friend got to the end credits in 3 hours of gameplay).”
“At first I was complaining how basic this game felt, but after giving it more of a chance, the game has pretty solid gameplay and is pretty 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 due to the complete lack of player agency, except in the XP upgrades, 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; my friend and I reached the end credits in just 3 hours of gameplay.”
