The verdict
A stylish but shallow, unfinished MOBA-style hero shooter that was cancelled and shut down. Servers are dead, so skip it unless you only want to remember it.
Great for
Nostalgic fans of Paragon or Gigantic who want to remember an ambitious, cancelled game
Main risk
The game is shut down and unplayable, and it was unfinished and empty even when live
