The gameplay is currently hindered by several mechanical issues, including an unremovable motion blur, lack of key bindings, and awkward zombie movement, which detract from the overall experience. Players suggest waiting for fixes or a sale before purchasing.
“It's a decent game for early access, but it needs a lot of mechanical fixes before I can attempt to play again. First, the motion blur has no option to turn it off. Second, there are no key bindings. Third, the zombies move in a very janky way. These issues currently ruin the gameplay for me. Hopefully, they fix these soon; I would wait to buy it when it's on sale for $5.”

The story is engaging, with quests that are well-received and provide a motivating cash reward system. However, as the game is in early access, there are minor issues present, though they are not considered game-breaking.
