What players say

Players praise the rear-view mirror combat and surreal visuals but are split on the execution. Many say the game was released unfinished and abandoned, with too little content for the price. Some find the abstract level design confusing and the color palette nauseating, while others call it a uniquely nightmarish shooter.
