The gameplay is described as engaging and rewarding, requiring skill and planning, but it suffers from a lack of variety, with limited modes available, particularly for solo players. While some players find it enjoyable for the price, others feel it doesn't fully meet the expectations of a battle royale experience.
- “Very interesting gameplay that never gets boring.”
- “Requires skill and planning mixed in with its simple, yet rewarding mechanics.”
- “I don't begrudge giving less than €2.5 to this game; I've had some hours of gameplay out of it, and by that metric, it's fine.”
- “Which works for some genres but not a battle royale, the genre that's core mechanic is a bunch of people at the same level trying to win off skill alone.”
- “For one, there are too few gameplay modes, essentially only solo mode if you don't have friends who play this game, to keep it interesting.”

The monetization strategy of the game has drawn criticism for being perceived as a cash grab, especially given its price on Steam despite being free on mobile. While there are effective in-game purchases and a battle pass system that could potentially enhance revenue if the game were free-to-play, the current pricing model feels exploitative to some players. Overall, the game is enjoyable, but many recommend playing the mobile version instead.
- “It already seems like there is a great battle pass system and a good in-game purchase system to make much more money for the devs if it went free-to-play and viral, than they would ever make charging $4.50.”
- “It's free on mobile; why they chose to make it cost money on Steam is beyond me and kind of scummy since there's in-game purchases. However, with my short playtime and assuming some of the players aren't bots, this is a pretty fun game.”
- “You could say 'why get mad, this is just a shameless cash grab,' but the problem is that there is actually a good game buried under this sh*t-heap.”
- “It's free on mobile; why they chose to make it cost money on Steam is beyond me and kinda scummy since there's in-game purchases. With my short playtime and assuming some of the players aren't bots, this is a pretty fun game. You should just play it on your phone though.”
- “Want to support the devs without buying microtransactions?”
