  • Immersive open world shooter with a strong homage to Far Cry 2, featuring brutal realism and a distinct 1970s Bush War atmosphere.
  • Satisfying gunplay, phenomenal animations, and well-executed mechanics such as stealth, weapon degradation, crafting, and a unique POW capture/jailbreak system.
  • Active and responsive solo developer releasing consistent updates, showing promising potential and engaging gameplay despite being in early access.
  • Enemy AI is broken, with unrealistic vision and behavior that negatively affects stealth and combat balance.
  • The game is very barebones and rough in its current early access state, with bugs, janky physics, and a problematic UI that hampers user experience.
  • Limited content at the moment with only one playable faction, minimal sandbox features, and no multiplayer, leaving the game feeling incomplete.

    The gameplay is engaging and reminiscent of Far Cry 2, featuring stealth, weapon degradation, and various mechanics like crafting and healing that add realism and intensity. While currently bare-bones and light on content, its core gameplay loop is fun and promising, especially considering it is developed by a solo creator. With further development and support, the game has strong potential to evolve into a richer sandbox experience.

    • “It's a little rough around the edges, but it's surprisingly fun and engaging as the game has a stealth mechanic and a weapon degradation mechanic which, in my opinion, brings an element of realism and a level of intensity into firefights.”
    • “Surprised at how many mechanics are in the game already such as healing, stealth, some crafting (silencers, bandages, repairs), a capture point system, as well as a POW system.”
    • “The game is clearly primarily inspired by Far Cry 2 but also adds some mechanics that you'd expect to see in a newer Far Cry or a similar game, fleshing out what is already an enjoyable experience.”
    • “Pretty light on content right now but the gameplay loop makes up for it.”
    • “Very bare bones at this point but the atmosphere and mechanics are there, just needs a little love and support.”
    • “But in spite of all of that, I cannot give this a negative review in good faith. It might be the only game in years trying to replicate the gameplay style and atmosphere that Far Cry had (especially 2) and it's the work of a solo developer. I have only high hopes that my issues are resolved and that this game thrives in the future.”

    The game is generally well optimized, running smoothly on many PCs, but still experiences occasional stutters and typical early-access bugs like physics clipping and crashes. While animations and movement are praised, issues with AI, UI readability, and audio balance suggest it needs further refinement before release.

    • “Animations are phenomenal, movement feels satisfying and guns sound very punchy. The game is well optimized as it runs smoothly on my PC, although some AI aspects and the UI need more polishing.”
    • “There are some stutters while playing, but optimization issues are common with every game. Overall, performance is acceptable despite minor hiccups.”
    • “The game currently has some typical alpha bugs including physics clipping and occasional performance crashes, but these are expected in an early release.”
    • “There are a few other issues, I get some stutters while playing (though optimization issues are common with every game in existence).”
    • “Only the Unita faction is currently playable, the sandbox is thin, and you will encounter typical alpha bugs like physics clipping and occasional performance crashes.”

  • atmosphere

    The atmosphere is praised for its immersive and distinct 1970s bush war setting, capturing a Far Cry 2-like vibe with fluid animations and heavy gunplay. Despite being somewhat bare bones and developed by a solo dev, the core atmosphere and mechanics show strong potential, eliciting hope for future improvements.

    • “Immersive atmosphere: for a project built by one person over two years, the animations are remarkably fluid, the gunplay feels heavy, and the 1970s bush war setting is incredibly distinct.”
    • “Very bare bones at this point but the atmosphere and mechanics are there; just needs a little love and support.”
    • “In spite of all of that, I cannot give this a negative review in good faith. It might be the only game in years trying to replicate the gameplay style and atmosphere that Far Cry had (especially 2). It’s the work of a solo dev, and I have only high hopes that my issues are resolved and that this game thrives in the future.”
