Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“After almost 2 hours there was no challenge. There's infinite resources, so nothing is stopping you from filling the whole map with turrets. 95% of the gameplay was hitting the same respawning rocks and trees for materials. 70 fps on max…”
“A complete rip off. It has a very small area that you expand and that's it. Virtually no content. You are basically paying or a Demo.”
