The verdict
A janky, repetitive Far Cry-style resistance shooter with a strong occupation atmosphere and fun weapon modding. Skip it at full price or if bugs and respawning enemies bother you.
Great for
Far Cry fans wanting a cheap, flawed but atmospheric urban resistance shooter with weapon tinkering
Main risk
Repetitive outpost loop, buggy spawns and poor optimization make it feel unfinished
