The game's story is set against a backdrop of zombie warfare, reminiscent of a more casual XCOM experience, with an emphasis on action over strategy. While the presentation and visuals are praised, players note that the missions can feel linear and repetitive, with some expressing a desire for a deeper narrative and more variety in mission types. Overall, the game offers an engaging premise but could benefit from enhanced storytelling elements.
“The presentation, story, idea, and visuals of this game are awesome; I have been looking forward to getting my hands on this game and trying it out for myself.”
“I was very surprised to see it's almost like a zombie XCOM that lets you fight hundreds of thousands of zombies in a single mission.”
“You find new scientists, doctors, and other useful people in rescue missions.”
“The missions look somewhat linear - it doesn't feel as dynamic as an XCOM campaign.”
“The zombie cleaning missions tend to get downright tedious after a while, the maps get kind of repetitive, and often missions tend to fall far too much to the side of either too easy or too hard.”
“Love it but could use some more story.”

The gameplay has been criticized for its poor design and controls, making it feel more suited for mobile devices than for PC. While some users believe it has potential, they recommend watching gameplay videos beforehand to determine if the experience aligns with their expectations. Overall, the gameplay experience is seen as lacking for PC users.
“This is probably a really good mobile game, and if you can get past that it has some of the worst controls I have ever encountered, this game has so much going for it. Just look at gameplay footage first to see if playing a mobile game on your PC is worth it.”
“This is not a PC game at all; the controls and a lot of gameplay decisions are so poorly designed and thought out that it's baffling how they think this is a working product for PC.”
“If you made it this far in the review, I want you to understand that this is probably a really good mobile game. However, if you can get past that, it has some of the worst controls I have ever encountered. This game has so much going for it, so go ahead and buy it, but just look at gameplay footage first to see if playing a mobile game on your PC is worth it.”
“Go and look up gameplay videos to truly get a grasp of what you're getting.”
