How it feels

A straightforward, fast-paced military shooter where you run through missions, rescue hostages, and defuse bombs with constant gunfights and little downtime.

What players say

Players are split on this low-budget first-person shooter. Some enjoy the straightforward missions and gradual difficulty, but many call it an asset flip with cheaply assembled assets and missing features like real fullscreen, weapon hotkeys, and achievements. Feedback consistently points to bland level design, overly accurate AI, and minor annoyances such as auto-fire defaulting on.
