The graphics of the game have received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with many users describing them as poor, weird, and reminiscent of outdated titles.

- “The setting and ambiance are awesome and the graphics are good for an indie game.”
- “Gotta say, love the aesthetic of this game.”

The story emphasizes resilience and the unpredictability of life, encouraging players to persevere despite challenges. However, the gameplay experience is marred by significant issues, such as a lack of progress saving and poor AI, which detracts from the overall narrative immersion. While there are some interesting elements like a day-night cycle, the storytelling is overshadowed by gameplay frustrations.
- “Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
- “I was surprised that there is actually a day-night cycle in every mission I've played, but you can watch the moon go down faster than you can walk from target to target; but anyway, not bad!”
- “[spoiler] If you want a serious gaming experience with a great storyline?”
- “The worst part of all is that it won’t save your progress at all. As you can see on my trophies, I’ve completed the first two missions, but once I stop playing and close the game, I can start at the beginning of the first mission again.”
- “The first few things you will notice (besides the poor looking visuals) are that there is no mini-map, which isn’t bad because you’ve been given the distance for your targets in order to complete the whole mission, but once you die and have already completed the mission, you will be ported back to the first spawn point. This is a big issue because the maps are quite large, and you won’t find the same spot again without help that quickly. I ended up at the third mission running around, searching for my target.”
- “Funny thing that I just realized: the store video shows how awful the AI is and is constantly killing the poor player in mission one.”

Players report frustrating controls, graphical glitches, and an overall lack of polish, making the experience feel more like a struggle against the game's shortcomings than an engaging challenge.
- “I don't mind the graphics, but the gameplay itself is flawed as hell.”
- “The gameplay is just as bad as everything else.”
- “Second Warfare is a FPS where you need to complete basic military objectives, while battling against terrible AI, disappearing grounds, huge amounts of pop-in, terrible voice acting, awful controls, frequent crashes, missing sound effects, poor gameplay, out of place objects, invisible enemies, stiff character models, frequent FPS dips to the single digits, poor optimization; basically, you're fighting against a terrible game throughout your experience.”

The humor in the game is characterized by its unintentional comedic moments, such as the poorly functioning AI that leads to amusing scenarios, particularly in the opening cutscene, which players find "hilariously bad." While some aspects may be funnier when shared with friends, the overall humor seems to stem from the game's flaws rather than intentional comedic writing.
- “The one good thing about this game is the opening cutscene; it's hilariously bad.”
- “Funny thing is, as the soldiers close in on you, they seem to get less accurate.”
- “Although I can imagine it to be funny with some friends.”
