Overview
It sounds complicated, but the bottom line is that this is a shooting game that puts the focus firmly on strategy, planning and intelligent thinking rather than just quick reactions and head-shots.
You can play solo against an online opponent in 1-v-1 battles or team up with a friend in 2-v-2 multiplayer matches. Along with the different formats, you can pick a range of modes. Free-For-All and Point Capture across 9 different arenas. There are currently 6 different characters and 6 varied weapons. You can unlock new outfits and styles as you progress.
The game is well designed to take advantage of this time-looping play with carefully designed small arenas. It also encourages other time-bending strategies like shooting where you think a future player may be in subsequent rounds. It's all very meta, but actually a lot of fun too.
