“It's remarkably simple and honestly pretty easy. The only times I died were some boss fights near the end. The dirt cheap price helps sell the extremely low rent atmosphere. There's a lot of charm to the presentation…”

“A pure, honest boomer shooter. Great price. No nonsense. Love the artstyle. Weapons feel balanced. The secrets are not obnoxiously hard to find. The achievements don't require you to jump through a billion hoops to get…”

“Beat it in 1 hour. It's alright for what it is. Leaves you kind of wishing for something a bit more fleshed out. Some explosive weapons would have been a nice addition. I did not regret playing”
“The guns feel amazing, like the dev actually has fired guns before. No joke the .45 and AK feel like some of the best in boomer shooters. The shotgun is amazing too, however I wish I could fire both barrels at once. My…”

“It's about as simplistic as an FPS gets. It doesn't do anything particularly well, and something's are very poor such as movement. But if you take it for what it is, it's relatively fun at times, and has some charm to…”
“It really is TRASH – even for the 1.50€ I paid on sale. • I quit after not even an hour when I got stuck on a bridge: The wall on one side was open and invited me to walk on the edge only to keep pushing me in one…”

— a player, Steam review · 2 hrs played“Short but sweet fps. Best positive are the guns feel and sound satisfying.”
— a player, Steam review · 3 hrs played“This is not your perfect AAA shooter. This is Trash Cinema made video game, and I love it. It's nice to play, fun and gory. And it's dirty cheap, even a full price. Totally recommend.”
