How it feels

You mash drums to shoot zombies while headbanging to a metal soundtrack in a frenetic, pixelated arcade riot.

What players say

Players praise the metal soundtrack and pixel art but are split on the difficulty: some find it fun with assist modes, others call it brutally unforgiving with a steep jump between early and later difficulties. The story mode is short, around two hours, and several players note technical issues like 60 fps lock and laggy UI. A few mention the community editor and leaderboards not working.
