The story is divided into six chapters, but many players find it lacking in immersion, often skipping cutscenes without consequence. While the dialogue includes some humorous moments, the overall narrative fails to engage, with players expressing a desire for more varied mission types. Additionally, gameplay mechanics related to squad management can be frustrating, detracting from the overall experience.
“The intentionally cheesy scenes between missions are a nice addition and occasionally very funny.”
“Good humor in the story and dialogue.”
“Maybe it might be fun running through the main story with a buddy, but that's pretty much it.”
“The story is represented by 6 chapters, but frankly, it does not immerse the player in any aspect; you can ignore it and skip cut-scenes, and it does not matter.”
“The only one that comes to mind is the difficulty balance on one mission where some enemies spawned early, making achieving the two simultaneous objectives impossible on 'very hard.'”
“Having to restart progression on a squad member after they die in a mission objectively makes sense, but it was a little annoying to feel like I was wasting points upgrading them.”

The game exhibits stability issues, including awkward controls and visual glitches, particularly with comic cut-scenes that do not fit the screen due to a 4:3 aspect ratio. While players can adapt to the controls, the overall experience is marred by these shortcomings, making it feel like a subpar port.
“The controls are a tad bit awkward, but once you get used to them, it's alright. However, I wish there was an option to play by just clicking the mouse, like the Microsoft Store releases of Tiny Troopers 1 and 2, which are still up and free. It's better than having to pay for a $10 half-ass port. It's a port, that's for sure, but there are some visual glitches, and it's in a 4:3 aspect ratio, which is frustrating because some of the comic cut-scenes don't even fit on the screen.”
