The verdict
A cheap, light low-poly arena shooter with fun, unusual weapons, but servers are almost always empty and there are no bots or single-player. Skip it unless you have friends to play with.
Great for
Groups of friends who buy it on deep sale and want a light, quick shooter
Main risk
Nobody is online and there are no bots or single-player, so you can't play solo.
