The gameplay is diverse and innovative, blending various mechanics while maintaining a spooky atmosphere, especially with the added DLC that introduces new content.

- “It's a really good concept, blending different gameplay styles; it's definitely worth giving it a try.”
- “The DLC adds a whole new chapter to the game, introducing new mechanics while maintaining the spooky core.”

The game's story is largely criticized for being underdeveloped, lacking characters and depth, with many players expressing a desire for a more engaging narrative centered around real grey alien conspiracies. While the atmosphere and initial gameplay are praised, the transition to combat feels disconnected, and the classic "shoot and kill" approach is seen as overdone. Players hope for future updates that could expand the story and incorporate more intriguing elements related to alien themes.
- “The atmosphere and overall grey alien theme were so cool; you don't see games with these kinds of scenarios at all. It was a must for me to try out as I've been waiting for a game like this. I wish we could see more real grey alien conspiracies grounded in this game, like abduction experiment scenes, underground alien bases, and government involvement. Hopefully, content like this gets included in the future.”
- “The first half of the game was great, but when it got into combat and objectives, the game's feel took a different path. I hope the developers continue expanding the story, as there's huge potential here, and I love what they did with the first half.”
- “Not to bash the story, but the classic shoot and kill these invaders has been overdone. Something grounded around real grey alien conspiracy would be so amazing to play.”
- “There is no story or characters or anything.”
- “The story is underdeveloped and the ending leaves much to be desired.”
- “Not to bash your story, but the classic shoot and kill these invaders has been overdone, so something grounded around real grey alien conspiracy would be so amazing to play.”
