Our Verdict
This is a game that knows what it wants to be—co-op shooting, killing bugs, that's it. It doesn't try to tell a grand story, doesn't try to build a massive open world, and doesn't try to revolutionize shooter gameplay. It just wants you and your friends to survive the swarm.
And it achieves that goal. The experience of being chased by bugs, running out of ammo, and barely making it to extraction with just your knife and teammates is genuinely thrilling. But the question is—then what? After you beat it, aside from replaying on a harder difficulty, the game doesn't give you much reason to stick around.
It's like fast food. Satisfying while you're eating it, forgotten once you're done. If you have three regular teammates, if you enjoy that "hold the line" tension, if you don't mind grinding the same missions repeatedly—then this game is worth a shot. But if you're a solo player, or expecting a shooter with depth, wait for a sale.
Is it worth 50 hours? Depends on your teammates. Is it worth 298 yuan? Depends on your wallet.

I'M FROM BUENOS AIRES AND I SAY KILL EM ALLShow moreShow less
so far, the game runs pretty good, but the only issue that is really killing this game are hackers. Ive been playing this game since it first came out, and it was really fun. Until hackers started showing up. At first it wasn't a big deal, but now it is getting out of hand. So far ive noticed that people who are reporting them and calling them "chinese hackers" are getting themselves banned or removed from the discussion form and support forms. I encountered plenty of hackers and most of them have chinese characters as their name and speak fluent mandarin in game chat. so yes, Chinese players (not all chinese players) but so far most of the hackers ive seen are chinese players, who are hacking are ruining the experience for this game. The Devs needs to do something about the hackers but so far, it seems like they are punishing players who are reporting them at least that is what it looks like on the official discord and steam discussion. At the current state of the game with the hacking issues, i can not recommend the game at this time. The amount of content is understandable for a early access, but the way they are handling things by punishing those who are reporting hackers on their official discord and saying it is discrimination. It is clear that those who are handling the support and discussion on discord and steam, supports hackers. (6/3/2023) (review may change in the future)Show moreShow less
The devs blatantly placed way too many bugs into this game and expect us to sort them out. I'm doing my part. Would you like to know more?Show moreShow less
WARNING: The game now forcefully and secretly installs Epic onto your machine without consent. Great game ruined by one terrible decision: It now forcefully installs the Epic launcher in the background when booting it up. To fix this, there are guides on Youtube that will show you how to remove the lines of code in Notepad that stops Epic being forcefully installed. If you have done it correctly, it wont forcefully install the Epic launcher on the games launch for no reason. A game dev should never enforce the installation of an entirely optional program on your machine, especially one so morally corrupt and politically influenced such as Epic.Show moreShow less

Abusive moderators "Centuron" with discretionary powers ban paying customers permanently from all access to forums related to the game if you disagree with their friends. You can tell about how serious the developers of the game are when they put a child on a power trip in charge of all forums and assistance. Not worth the money.Show moreShow less
