The gameplay is generally stable and offers around 2 hours of career mode, featuring a variety of guns and solid sound design. However, players note that controls can feel unrefined, and the gameplay may become repetitive over time, limiting its overall appeal. While it provides a fun shooting range experience at a low price, it lacks depth and multiplayer options compared to more detailed shooters.
- “The game is stable; you get about 2 hours of gameplay for the career mode. The sound effects, rock music, and voices are good, and you get a nice variety of guns and settings.”
- “With acceptable visuals and heavy, atmospheric music, it would be just an okay game; however, the creators took the gunplay very seriously, so using different weapons leads to quite different gameplay as well.”
- “Overall, I think it's a fun shooting range game well worth the price tag; just don't expect the attention to detail of World of Guns or Call of Duty gameplay.”
- “However, the controls and overall gameplay can feel janky and unrefined at times.”
- “The main mechanic, which is aiming, is rather flawed.”
- “As much as I want to boost the concept, the repetitive gameplay exterminates the joy later on.”

Overall, the story serves as a backdrop for the gameplay experience, with a mix of straightforward objectives and challenging tasks for those seeking to excel.

- “The game is not too hard though - if you just want to finish it there are only 2-3 missions that can be really challenging.”

- “Some of the missions are a bit long and get extremely tedious, but there is some fun to be had with some of the shooting ranges.”
- “Apart from the missions where you can fail, you can do literally nothing and you will win.”
