- “The gameplay is fun and surprisingly well balanced.”
- “As a result, the gameplay seems to really stagnate, which does send a lot of players into boredom.”
- “The game's dynamics lack tension once a team loses all three flags, rendering the experience monotonous and unengaging, particularly for players on the losing side who are left with little meaningful gameplay options -- beyond aimless DM skirmishing or AFK for little to no benefit.”
- “The game still suffers from unexplained mechanics, no tutorial (just quick tool tips), and new items that you have to guess the effectiveness of on the fly, or look up on the wiki to understand what they do.”

The monetization model of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating its focus on cosmetic items that do not impact gameplay, while others criticize the high prices and limited availability of desired items. Some users express frustration over the transition to a free-to-play model that introduced microtransactions, which they feel detracts from the initial experience. Overall, while there are concerns about pricing and accessibility, many agree that the game offers a fair approach to monetization, allowing players to earn cosmetics through gameplay without aggressive paywalls.
- “Progression is entirely cosmetic and the monetization is among the least predatory out of any live service game currently.”
- “Cosmetics are easy to get, its monetization model feels very fair and one of the best in the market.”
- “There are no microtransactions, so just buy the base game, and earn everything by playing the game.”
- “The monetization, especially in the shop, seems to have little to no changes on how they operate, with each item being quite overpriced for what they are, and requiring you to wait for the whole item rotation to get the item you want.”
- “They finally released a big update in September 2020, and we find out the game is now owned by Modus, 'free to play,' meaning those who paid 15 dollars for a full experience with no microtransactions can go screw themselves, and of course, it's filled with microtransactions that cost absurd amounts of money for comparatively nothing.”
- “I love this game, but my only concern is how expensive the microtransactions are and how much everything costs. I want to support this game, but the asking price for 5000 tickets is 54.95 AUD, and because of that, I ran out of tickets surprisingly quickly and still had new items to buy.”

- “The music is intoxicating, simple and gets stuck in your head.”
- “The music, though there is very little of it, is also boppin.”
- “Music I can't really say too much about, but it's pretty great if you go listen to the soundtrack, even if 4 out of the 10 songs in the soundtrack are 3-minute loops of the emotes; they are all really nice to listen to every once in a while.”
- “The music is intoxicating, simple, and gets stuck in your head.”

The game's story is described as having a light and somewhat superficial narrative, with lore that adds depth but doesn't reach the complexity of more established titles. Players appreciate the backstory revealed through exploration and the engaging character dynamics in missions, which provide a mix of individual and overarching plots. While the gameplay is primarily action-focused, the incorporation of missions and quests offers a fun way to experience the game's world and its evolving narrative.
- “The backstory to the game is fun and is subtly incorporated into the map.”
- “It both gives you tremendous freedom to explore an astonishingly well-realized world and tells a story that’s gripping, thrilling, and darkly comic.”
- “The world is set in a rundown safari park with many different biomes and areas, and a hidden lore about the place, signs of an interesting hidden backstory and the struggle between the super animal world forces and the rising opposition: the super animal super resistance.”
- “The gameplay itself really doesn't have any story-related elements to it, even saw vs. rebels, but the backstory you can get from exploring the map is a fun bonus on top of the gameplay.”
- “The 'campaign' is a little buggy (by campaign I mean quests triggered by talking to the golden lab at the lobby), but other than that, 10/10.”
- “For an early-access game, the top-down run-n-gun design is absolutely solid, and by itself it has a monster amount of potential for all kinds of team-based warfare gaming, or even its very own story mode.”
grinding

Overall, players find the grinding in the game to be a mixed experience; while some appreciate the variety of items and the ability to earn currency through gameplay, others feel that the process can be tedious and slow, especially at higher levels. Improvements have been noted, particularly with the battle pass system allowing for extended progress, but many still wish for a less grind-heavy approach to unlocking cosmetics and characters. Despite these critiques, the engaging gameplay and community support help mitigate the grind for many players.
- “The battle pass for this game is not too grindy, but they don't give you a lot of missions to work with to earn experience. However, the game allows you to keep earning progress up to 2 battle passes since they don't expire, which means you don't have to miss out on items. This is a really big plus, and I wish other games would also do this!”
- “Despite that, it's still not really grindy.”
- “It wasn't as tedious as other battle royale types, as the rounds hardly last more than five minutes.”
- “The biggest critique is the slow grinding.”
- “It's fun for a little while but it just feels tedious grinding out game after game to get all the unlocks and collect DNA.”
- “Since there is no currency in the game, everything must be unlocked by grinding missions and experience points, and some of these missions ask for a lot, so for some, that might be a turn off.”
