Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
23 of 104 sampled reviews raised it
The style, the music, the sound design, the atmosphere the level design, the great gunplay that I personally really enjoyed (except the horrible sniper rifle with a rubbish scope), the interesting characters a well made world, with tons and tons of lore potential, the interesting premise... the literal "Apocalyptic Vibes"...
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
22 of 104 sampled reviews raised it
TL;DR: This is an atmospheric game that has a multitude of unique game mechanics, but can demish if you play this like a real shooter.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
21 of 104 sampled reviews raised it
Even if it acts as a long distance head shot machine, the first two weapons did a much better job.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
18 of 104 sampled reviews raised it
While the OST wasn't made by the creator, they pulled from some really unique tracks that captured the vastness of this landscape.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
9 of 104 sampled reviews raised it
Utilizing the GZDoom engine, the game adopts a “retrorealism” approach—melding photo-realistic textures with the classic architecture and sprite-based graphics reminiscent of early 90s shooters.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
7 of 104 sampled reviews raised it
Fire, which is an even more valuable resource when playing on the hardcore difficulty that only allows saving by a fireplace.
