The game features a gorgeous retro aesthetic and delivers a top-notch hellish atmosphere with efficient sound effects.
The level design is well-executed, and the boss fights are notably better than regular enemy encounters, providing a unique challenge.
The upgrade system adds RPG elements to the gameplay, allowing for weapon and character enhancements that can make combat more engaging.

The maps are too large for the slow movement speed, making navigation feel tedious and frustrating.
Balancing issues with health and ammo make the game difficult for average players, especially on normal difficulty.
The combat can feel dull at the start, with some weapons underwhelming until upgraded, and the enemy variety is limited.

Players generally find that grinding is not a significant requirement for completing the game on the first difficulty, as it can be largely ignored. However, advancing to the second difficulty level necessitates some time investment to strengthen characters, indicating that grinding may become more relevant at higher levels.
- “If you play it straight forward to the end, you can practically ignore grinding, and farming doesn't seem super viable anywhere. However, going into the second difficulty will require a bit of time to get stronger.”
