It's 100% free with zero pay to win features at all. Short and fun to 100%. There isn't a lot of content out but what is there right now is worth playing. Hoping more content will get added.

Aside from Generative AI being used (I dislike Generative AI to a certain extent), I think the game is pretty decent in its own way. It's certainly catered towards a niche audience, being more focused on military aspect in terms of aesthetics and world building. Gameplay wise, it is extremely repititive as most of the gameplay revolves around clicking in a turn based game but if you can handle that part, it shouldn't be a issue at all. The gacha rates are...ehh...decent except for higher tier items like the orange tiers (they are an abnormal 1% rate) which makes it hard for newer players to get whatever certain character, firearm, or attachment from the gacha pool due to having little resources to spare. This wouldn't be a problem if you were a endgame player with abundant resources to throw at the gacha. The good thing is that the game is free and there doesn't seem to have any sort of microtransaction yet.

The story is fairly interesting but didn't have me completely hooked. The gameplay with fun for a bit but quickly became repetitive and dull (especially with the auto battle feature). The rng mechanics don't really make much sense and the general sound and user design could use some work. It certainly does have potential but, in its current state, I can't recommend it.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?
