The gameplay is described as a straightforward and addictive experience, reminiscent of a mobile game, with responsive controls and a mix of mechanics including shooting and boss levels.

- “Clearly a port of a mobile game (some scenes still tell you to tap), but that is not a bad thing; it's a brainless but very fun and addicting game.”
