The gameplay is characterized by a reliance on stealth mechanics, particularly in the early stages where players must avoid direct confrontations due to limited attack options. While the evolution system introduces new abilities and enhances combat dynamics, the respawning enemies and clunky mechanics can lead to frustration. Overall, the game offers an enjoyable blend of stealth and action, though it suffers from some bugs and a lack of depth in later levels.
- “Although somewhat buggy, overall this was an enjoyable and addictive stealth/action game with some nice skill-based mechanics.”
- “You can really feel a change in gameplay when you evolve, and I loved the last evolution the most, a real powerhouse compared to the initial larva.”
- “Relatively simple stealth gameplay, the evolution as you go is really interesting and makes the game continue to be spiced up as you go.”
- “I'd just recommend not sticking around to kill everyone as this game's biggest problem is that every enemy and elixir respawns when you die, leading to really annoying or frustrating gameplay.”
- “Also, as a baby alien or even an edgy teenage alien, you can't attack enemies from the front, so you have to base your entire gameplay on stealth. If you get caught, you are forced to run.”
- “The game mechanics seem unnecessarily complex; the game is too easy, and killing seems like too much of an easy solution in most cases.”
