How it feels

A tense military simulation where you manage the stamina and stress of raw recruits through a rigid 12-week training schedule.

What players say

Players praise the core concept but agree the campaign is short, around 2-4 hours, with little reason to replay. Many find the training loop repetitive and wish they could skip animations. Some note combat favors assault infantry over other classes and say the game feels like a foundation for its announced sequel. Reviews advise buying on a deep sale.
