fake lobby scam?? game is local only, playing with real people is impossible. they just pretend to match you with real people. lobbies appear to be randomized locally. really dissapointed as the game is solid. not sure why they had to resort to fooling people????
This game doesn't even have multiplayer :/
It's funny and interesting. It's not only because it is free, but also thanks to its diverse weapons and arenas.(PS:In fact,it only has about four or five arenas,which,you could choose to play with your friends, I strongly recommend production team to add more arenas and modes for player to fight.)
good i have spent like wayyy more time on this game on my nintendo switch so its more like ~60 hours of playtime and with that information i can confidently say: its good 👍👍👍👍
My favorite map is Snipers! You can easily kill other opponents' drones within mere seconds if you just learn a bit about the physics!
Underrated gem
