The monetization strategy of the game has received significant criticism for its excessive reliance on ads, with many players reporting that they spend more time watching ads than actually playing. While some users appreciate the option to watch ads for rewards, the frequency and length of forced ads after each mission are seen as intrusive and detrimental to the overall gaming experience.

The game's story is largely centered around completing missions to gather resources, particularly steel beams needed to progress. However, players frequently report becoming stuck due to a lack of steel rewards from missions, leading to repetitive gameplay and frustration as they are unable to advance the story.

“You can't earn enough building materials throughout the missions to build the required base needed to move onto the next campaign/chapter.”
“Everything has been tolerable up until I get to the 3rd map where I can't collect the steel parts in order to complete building the base; the salvage missions only give bricks, making completing the base impossible.”

The reviews indicate a strong desire for in-game music to enhance tension and immersion, as players find the current audio experience lacking, with only a brief victory tune and quiet zombie sounds. Many users believe that adding background music would significantly improve the overall excitement and atmosphere of the game.
“This game would be more exciting if there was in-game music.”
“Nice game, just needs background music.”
“It would be much better if they added music in the game for a bit of tension and immersion.”
“Still no in-game music - still very quiet zombies. The only very short tune is when you win a game, and that's it. This game would be more exciting if there was in-game music and the zombies moaned like zombies normally do instead of being so quiet.”
