Some reviews mention a moral lesson about perseverance, while others criticize the inability to skip cutscenes and the repetitive nature of missions. Overall, the narrative is seen as simplistic, with some players appreciating its lightheartedness amidst the action.
“A great relaxing shooter with cute graphics, sick bosses, and a nice story.”

“This is basically a game on rails with a ridiculous story; hilariously, the player cannot skip the story once you have started, you must wait for cutscenes to finish in order to play.”
“This game literally is just comprised of repeat missions that have nothing creative about how the game is played. You are always stuck in one spot shooting (or in an arena) stabbing enemies, which gets boring very quickly.”
“I like the idea, but there isn't a lot to do; it lacks a lot of gameplay and any story.”

The gameplay is described as a straightforward and addictive experience, reminiscent of a mobile game, featuring simple mechanics and responsive controls that enhance the fun. While it includes varied elements like sniper levels and bosses, the overall excitement is limited, and the online component is no longer functional, making it less appealing for multiplayer enthusiasts. Despite its flaws, many find enjoyment in the shooting mechanics and progression system.
“Clearly a port of a mobile game (some scenes still tell you to tap lol), but that is not a bad thing; it's a brainless but very fun and addicting game, and the mouse/keyboard controls enhance the gameplay.”
“Every few levels it mixes things up with alternate gameplay such as sniper levels or bosses.”
“Fun, very responsive little on-rails shooter with a good progression system and some actual gunplay mechanics.”
“On-line gameplay no longer works, but it is not necessary to complete the game or obtain all achievements.”
“Don't waste your $2 (USD) on this as it is just reused mechanics for the offline mode, and there is almost no one to even bother playing with online.”
“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.”

Players recommend playing the game on PC rather than mobile due to the presence of ads on mobile, which can be removed for a higher cost of €2.39. Overall, the monetization strategy on mobile is viewed as less favorable compared to the ad-free experience on PC.
“I recommend playing it here and not on mobile because here you will see no ads, but on mobile, you will see them. If you buy the no-ads option there, it will be a lot more expensive than 2.39 euros.”
