“Honestly it's the best roguelite I've ever played. Gunplay is a 10/10 both in the tightness of the controls to the weight each gun feels like it has. Movement is clean and smooth. Graphics are great. Story is really…”

“casual and challanging. stable, working smooth, easy to learn, combine your class by randomly offered upgrades. One of the best”
“I'm absolutely hooked on this game loop. And that's saying something considering I'm not usually a big FPS roguelike fan. But this game gets the mix just right with the pacing, gun feel and overall game play loop. I've…”

“It's simple to pick up and addictive. great game”
“Saw another review that nailed it. This is like playing the Hades loop but in Halo. It's rather polished considering this is a small team putting out the game, and there's only the occasional bug. Gameplay is tight and…”

“Extremely uninspired. Everything this game does has been done before, often better. Game feels sluggish, slow and the maps are just small corridors and squares with no variety. Enemies are completely uninspired. AI…”
“I don't generally want to support an AI generated game that utilizes basic movement and the same 4 rooms over and over again. Didn't think I was going to. Bought this. Didn't see anything on the storefront suggesting it…”
“Very fun game with a great power fantasy and tons of ways to play. Some of the weapons and encounters do a feel a bit same-ish but for the price-tag it is more than worth the money”

“Honestly, if the higher difficulties didn't feel miserable, this would be an easy recommendation. Expert, the one above hard, is usually fine. Low margin for error in the later missions, but fine otherwise. Nightmare,…”
“this game is amazing, but it can get extremely hard and I wish the story was longer. Other than that, I really love this game!”

It gives way too much pew pew flash bang dopamine. You'll be telling yourself just "one more run" ... 6 hours later you'll still be sat there in…”
— a player, Steam review · 141 hrs played“Edit after 19 hours; Don't get me wrong, it IS a good game so this leans more towards neutral, but there are some issues I can't live with that may or may not be addressed in the future, I don't know. For me, replayability is massively dampened by the fact that each main mission…”
