- “There is no real gameplay, all you do is hit paper targets, there is no tank on tank combat at all.”

The story is minimal and primarily centers on destroying enemy tanks across different maps, with some users finding it lackluster. Additionally, technical glitches during quests can disrupt the narrative experience.

The game suffers from severe optimization issues, causing extremely low frame rates—often dropping to around 5 FPS—especially when using optics, leading to noticeable input lag. This poor performance is surprising given that the user's system easily runs more demanding titles.
- “Basically unplayable, it's so badly optimized.”
- “Whenever I look through the optics, the game drops to 5 frames per second. I don't know if it's due to poor performance, but there is a noticeable delay between control commands. My computer runs Boneworks and Half-Life Alyx just fine, so I don't understand how this indie game can ruin the frames this badly.”
