The verdict
A free, retro 2D post-Soviet shooter with fun weapons and a loyal fanbase, but the servers are nearly dead, the dev abandoned it, and many players can't launch it. Skip unless you bring friends.
Great for
Nostalgic fans of old-school 2D shooters who can bring friends
Main risk
Almost no players online, abandoned by the dev, and may not load or be accessible at all
What players love
Fun, fast 2D shooter gameplay
