    The gameplay is criticized for its clunky mechanics, including the cumbersome inventory system that requires players to manually use items like ammo and health packs. Additionally, there are issues with enemy interactions, such as projectiles passing through closed doors, which undermine the intended strategic elements. Overall, the gameplay received a score of 5.5/10.

    • “The gameplay mechanics are engaging, but there are some issues with inventory management, as you need to open your inventory to use ammo or health packs during gameplay.”
    • “I encountered a situation where a laser porcupine shot at me through a door I had closed, indicating that the mechanic for blocking enemies in a room doesn't always function as intended.”
    • “The mechanics are very clunky.”
    • “When you pick up ammo or health packs, you need to open your inventory to use them because there is no input set up to do it during gameplay.”
    • “One laser porcupine shot at me through a door that I closed, so the mechanic where you try to block them in a room sometimes doesn't work properly.”

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    67% positive mentions, -67% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The story is engaging, centering on a one-man mission to rescue survivors and retrieve an experimental AI brain, but players suggest the addition of a journal feature for better guidance and note management.

    • “The story itself is interesting enough; however, I would recommend adding some more guidance for the player, perhaps a journal feature where they can review notes without having to travel back to a location to check the hint.”
    • “You're called in on a one-man mission to rescue any survivors, neutralize any threats, and retrieve the experimental AI brain Marsh has developed.”
    • “The story feels disjointed and lacks a coherent narrative arc.”
    • “Character development is minimal, making it hard to connect with anyone in the game.”
    • “The plot twists are predictable and fail to deliver any real surprises.”

  • graphics

    The graphics of the game are hindered by significant technical issues, including poor framerate and sluggish character movement, even at lower settings. Overall, it has received a mediocre rating of 6/10.

    • “Technical issues first and foremost - even reducing the graphic settings, the game still has some major issues with framerate and even turning the character around feels sluggish.”
    • “Graphics: 6/10”

  • optimization
