How it feels

A tense and methodical space heist where careful planning clashes with chaotic, procedurally generated threats.

What players say

Players praise the distinctive art style and dark humor, but many find the gameplay repetitive after a few hours. It is a strategy-heavy FPS where ammo is scarce and retreating is often the smart move, not a fast-paced run-and-gun.
