What players say

92% of 8,227 reviews are positive · 76% of 25 in the last 30 days

Players praise the gunplay, weapons, retro visuals, and metal soundtrack. Many criticize checkpoint respawns for leaving defeated enemies dead, which they say makes dying feel inconsequential. Some find the later levels repetitive or restrictive.
