    • “Maybe I'm just bad, but I was not able to execute a mission successfully in over 3 hours of play; only a handful of deaths actually felt deserved.”
    • “Also, the missions are just awful along with AI respawning on top of an area you just cleared, so you get shot in the back constantly.”

    The graphics in the game are generally considered decent, featuring accurate weapon models and reasonable visuals; however, many users criticize the animations as stiff and unnatural, and some report issues with performance despite attempts to optimize settings. Overall, while the graphics quality has its merits, it is overshadowed by gameplay problems and a lack of polish in certain areas.

    • “The graphics are decent enough, but the animations are very stiff and unnatural, and the destroyed state of objects looks like a light coating of rust applied to an otherwise unscathed model.”
    • “Reasonably priced, good time killer with random missions, decent visuals and accurate weapon models.”
    • “What I really like about this game is the graphics quality.”
    • “Lowered graphics settings, cleared all my caches, clean install and still won't play worth playing!”
    • “The graphics are decent enough but the animations are very stiff and unnatural, and the destroyed state of objects looks like a light coating of rust applied to an otherwise unscathed model.”

    The gameplay is seen as having potential, but many reviewers feel it currently resembles a prototype rather than a polished product, with repetitive mechanics primarily involving shooting at similar enemies from a distance. Overall, the execution is better than many other titles on Steam, yet it lacks the depth and variety expected from a paid release.

    • “There's potential in the concept, and the execution is better than many on Steam, but currently (Nov 3, 2021) this feels much more like a prototype to workshop mechanics than it does a public release worth asking money for.”
    • “Virtually all the gameplay is still just crouching in fields and firing a handgun at enemies on the horizon.”
    • “All looking like reskins of practically the same gameplay loop.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users report that the game's optimization is generally strong, as it runs smoothly alongside a wide range of other titles without performance issues.

    • “I have almost every Call of Duty game, and probably 50 other PC games that I play on Steam without any performance issues at all.”
    • “The optimization in this game is terrible; I experience constant frame drops and stuttering.”
    • “Despite having a high-end PC, the game runs poorly and feels unoptimized.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “The humor in this game is spot on, with clever writing that keeps you laughing throughout.”
    • “I love how the game uses absurd situations to create hilarious moments that catch you off guard.”
    • “The witty dialogue and playful interactions between characters add a delightful layer of humor to the gameplay.”
  • emotional
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the game engaging and reminiscent of classic titles, evoking a sense of nostalgia. However, some express concerns about its early access state, which may detract from the overall emotional experience.
