The gameplay includes crafting rifles and pistols that shoot bullets, electricity or rockets and there are many other combinations when creating weapons.
Plot
Never forget.
Reception
Touch Arcade says that it is "a pretty brilliant kind of way to design a first person shooter".[3] Pocket Gamer says it is a streamlined version of Midnight Star, and it is a lesser game because of it; the objectives, enemies, and locations are repetitive, and the controls are more clumsy and cumbersome, since in addition to aiming your weapon, the player needs to swipe in order to move in a direction (the previous game moved the player on rails).[4]
