The game has a unique cyberpunk atmosphere and good graphics, making it visually appealing.
Gameplay is solid with responsive weapons and a variety of character classes, each with unique abilities.
The developers are actively updating the game and working on strategies to build a player base, showing commitment to improving the title.

There is a significant lack of players, making it difficult to find online matches and often forcing players to rely on bots.
The game feels incomplete with limited content, including only two maps and a few game modes, which can lead to repetitive gameplay.
Some mechanics, such as character movement and bot AI, are underdeveloped, leading to a less engaging experience.

The gameplay is generally praised for its solid mechanics and engaging atmosphere, making it a worthwhile experience for players. However, there are concerns regarding the lack of multiplayer infrastructure and the need for a robust single-player component, particularly in VR titles, as well as the absence of unique locomotion mechanics. Overall, the game is seen as a good value and a commendable effort by the developers.
- “So - nice game, good graphics, solid gameplay - well worth the price and well worth supporting the developers (especially as it is clear that the developers are supporting us as gamers).”
- “This game will hold me over; I like the atmosphere and gameplay.”
- “Devs working on VR titles really need to take this into account and ensure that they have a solid single player mechanic (i.e. good AI bots), or it will be born dead.”
- “A note to all devs working on games with a strong multiplayer mechanic - the infrastructure is just not there (as you know) - not by a very long way.”
- “There's no special locomotion mechanic.”

Reviewers express a desire for a more developed story aspect in the game, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive campaign mode that effectively conveys the backstory of the game world. They suggest that a single-player or co-op story mode would enhance the experience, alongside larger maps and additional gameplay features. Overall, there is a call for a richer narrative experience that complements the gameplay.
- “Single player/co-op story mode would be great.”
- “A campaign mode that is not half-done, but something simple that also explains the backstory to the world we're fighting in would enhance the experience.”
- “The campaign mode feels half-done and lacks depth; it should provide a simple yet engaging backstory to the world we're fighting in.”
