How it feels

A weighty, narrative-focused experience where moral dilemmas and historical authenticity drive the tension through linear wartime campaigns.

What players say

Players are split on this solo-developed FPS. Some praise its choose-your-own-adventure story and rare Soviet perspective, but most agree the game feels unfinished: controls are clunky, animations are stiff, sound design is nearly absent, and AI voice acting cheapens the experience. Graphics are dated and performance is puzzlingly demanding for what it shows.
