What players say
Game is older than me, but it's still good. A little scuffed, The controls are wack but those can be changed in the settings. Some bugs and lack of direction but overall the game was great.

It's challenging but ok, ok, next thing. Aiming, aiming is so so bad, I had...
I think it's important to keep a balance in things. Yeah, balance, that's the right word.

About the game
