❤ Immersive and Tactical Gunplay

Players praise the immersive and tactical combat, which takes heavy inspiration from the F.E.A.R. series. Enemies communicate with each other, take cover, try to flank, and adjust their tactics based on the player's actions and the weapons they are using. This creates a deliberate, high-stakes combat experience that rewards careful positioning and use of the environment.

❤ Versatile Weapon Mechanics

The arsenal of weapons offers versatility and depth. Players can find and equip various mods and upgrades that dramatically change how the weapons behave, to the point where reviewers highlight how these upgrades can "recontextualize" certain weapons, turning ones they initially ignored into important parts of their loadout.

❤ Challenging but Rewarding Difficulty

Reviewers note that the game is challenging, with enemies capable of quickly overwhelming the player if they are not cautious and tactical. However, they emphasize that this difficulty is fair and rewarding, requiring the player to truly learn the combat systems and level design in order to progress.

❤ Intricate Level Design

The environments are praised as huge, complex, and full of secrets to discover. The levels are not just linear corridors, but intertwined, Metroidvania-style spaces that encourage exploration and backtracking. Navigating these levels can be challenging, as the lack of a traditional map or objective markers can lead to getting lost, but reviewers see this as intentional, adding to the sense of immersion and rewarding those who take the time to observe their surroundings.
