« Je ne comprends pas pourquoi sur la version switch on a les sous titres en FRANÇAIS et pas sur la version Steam ? »👎 anonymous review · 0 h played« I've been playing a lot of single player shooters lately, and compared to them this one lacks the impact of the gunplay, probably because there's not as much blood coming out of the enemies and it's often unclear where to go. »👎 anonymous review · 0 h played« Uglier than any of the games it's inspired by. Not enough enemy variety. Weapons are mostly meh. Horrible color design. Play any original boomer instead... Doom, Blood, Duke Nukem, Dark Forces, etc. »👎 anonymous review · 8 h played« It's just not very fun. Poor gun feel, inadequate ammo. Level design feels alright, but it's kind of soulless compared to other shooters in this genre. »👎 anonymous review · 4 h played« While a competent Build shooter, that's basically all it is. And the company behind it does a bunch of shady ♥♥♥♥. »👎 anonymous review · 6 h played« Une pur Merveille, sur le moteur de duke nukem , le jeu est magnifique y'a un t'elle niveau de détail, le jeu est beau dans une ambiance un peu cyberpunk les lumière sont belles, vraiment magnifique »👍 anonymous review · 10 h played
