The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players enjoying its pleasant mechanics and unique starting point on a moving train, which adds a 3D element to the battle royale experience. However, others criticize the limited gun options and a lack of depth, suggesting that the game may not hold up without friends to enhance the experience. Overall, while the graphics and initial enjoyment are noted, there are calls for improvements to enrich the gameplay further.
“Good graphics with pleasant gameplay; I don’t regret the money spent and I am only waiting for improvements.”
“Gameplay is pleasant; the game gives me pleasure.”
“Gameplay mechanics: the player starts the match on a train moving through the landscape where most battle royales will have you in the air, giving you a more three-dimensional approach to your original spawn, where the train is two-dimensional, making it easy for players to see when another player gets off the train and able to hunt them down quickly.”
“The guns are limited as is the gameplay.”
“Don't expect much from the gameplay unless you have friends who also bought this title along with you.”
“There's a base of a game here, but no real gameplay in sight.”

The game's optimization has received mixed reviews, with some players experiencing crashes and needing to adjust settings frequently, while others report solid performance without lag. Overall, while the game shows promise, many feel that optimization issues, particularly with aiming, detract from the experience.
“In general, I liked the game, but optimization is not the best.”
“8/10 (minus 2 points for optimization)”
“[b]Performance[/b]: solid performance, no lag on my end.”
“Its performance was a mixed bag since I had a couple of crashes to desktop (CTDs), not to mention the annoying fact that I had to fiddle with the settings and resolution each time I restarted the game.”
“So, I can say that the game is good, with a good idea, but optimization is still lacking. While the game is in early access, I recommend it, but the online experience and the number of weapons could be improved.”
“The aiming is by far the most lacking aspect in terms of optimization.”

The game lacks a coherent story or campaign, leaving players with little narrative to engage with, resulting in a desolate experience that invites personal interpretation rather than providing a structured plot.
“What story?”
“Even if I wanted to conjure up a story from the few things I did see on the desolate map, I’ll leave that interpretation to your very own eyes, if you’re ever willing to play this title.”
“- No story/campaign.”

The game currently has no microtransactions, but it is a paid title that includes cosmetic in-game purchases. Some users suggest that transitioning to a free-to-play model with in-game purchases could enhance the player base and overall experience.
“Fortunately, no microtransactions just yet.”
“+ Paid game with in-game purchases (cosmetic only).”
“However, if the developers take my advice and make the game free-to-play with in-game purchases, I feel that the player base would grow quickly and make the game a bit more worth playing.”
“The game is a paid title with in-game purchases that are cosmetic only.”
“If the developers consider making the game free-to-play with in-game purchases, I believe the player base would grow quickly and enhance the overall experience.”

The game's music aspect is notably lacking, featuring no soundtrack or voice acting, and limited sound effects primarily consisting of footsteps and occasional gunfire. Reviewers suggest that players would be better off listening to their own music while playing, as the audio experience is minimal and unsatisfying.
“No soundtrack, no voice acting, and the sound effects were limited to footsteps and perhaps gunfire, if you’re lucky enough to retain the weapon you spent your last credits on.”
