What players say

Players are split on this early access FPS. Some praise its old-school exploration and corporate satire, while others find it too buggy, with confusing navigation and no quest markers. The game is short, around 3-4 hours, and several players compare it to Half-Life or Dark Souls for its hands-off guidance.
