Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
13 of 149 sampled reviews raised it
P.S.: Considering the high quality voice acting and the fact that this game is not for everybody, the price tag is absolutely fine.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
10 of 149 sampled reviews raised it
Gunplay is functional and provides enough action to support the educational premise, but players should not expect the sophistication of a dedicated FPS built around elaborate weapons, advanced enemy behavior, cinematic presentation, or complex level design.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
6 of 149 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics are nice, not the best but above most others, it's got some bopping' tracks and the VAs sound great.
