The verdict
A fast, skill-based first-person sci-fi battle royale with great gunplay, but the servers are effectively dead and the devs abandoned it. Skip it unless you only want training mode.
Great for
Nostalgic fans of fast, aim-focused shooters who just want to try the training range
Main risk
You can't get into a match: servers are dead or empty and the game is abandoned
What players love
Fast, short matches
Mentioned in ~1 in 6 positive reviews
“Normal game will only last up to 15:00 minutes (if you win), so none of that "loot-for-25-minutes-running-simulator" gameplay.”
