The gameplay has been widely criticized for its severe control issues, including high mouse acceleration and a wobbly camera that disrupts user aim, making it frustrating and unenjoyable. Players report limited content, frequent bugs, and a lack of depth, leading to an overall negative experience. Many reviewers suggest that the game fails to deliver even basic fun, likening it to low-quality mobile games.
- “It's like the Android games most of us are familiar with; it's just for fun, not for intensive gameplay or story.”
- “If you're looking for in-depth gameplay, then this game is not for you.”
- “I went in looking for 15 minutes of dumb fun and got 7 minutes of 'avoid the bugs' gameplay.”
- “The first thing you will notice in this game is the super high mouse acceleration, which makes hitting something very difficult. Therefore, the gameplay is poor since that's pretty much all there is to it.”
- “The gameplay has serious problems - the developers decided that the best approach would be to break a basic UI rule, which is to subvert user control. As such, the camera wobbles when it shouldn't, and your aim is artificially distorted by the same wobbling. This isn't fun, as gameplay is 100% based around correcting for the developer breaching basic UI rules and removing control from the user.”
- “If you do get it, brace yourself for control issues, weak gameplay, limited content, frequent bugs and crashes, and a general lack of a good time.”
