What We Think:
For this game you need two players, so scratch out playing if you are a lonely gamer looking for some “shoot-em-up fun.” It’s a basic set up with minimal places to hide and in the end I found it rather boring. I do like the premise and I think the creators should elaborate on it, make it for 1-4 players with more hiding areas…or obstacles in the way that would defer your attention to your opponent. With all the amazingly artistic and creative indie game ideas emerging on the market, I give it 2 out of 5 stars. For the idea, the work that was put into it…but I think it is a work in progress that has room for further development. I’d definitely want to play this game if it was more exciting, or in other words, elaborate.
