Opinion

I have also played the game once, and I must say that the graphics of the game is interesting. There are several features added to the game which makes it more interesting like sliding while running, it makes you move more speed and while doing that you can also have the option of shooting down your enemies.

Meanwhile, the players are unable to jump in and out from the window, so every time you have to open and close the gate to enter a house of a secret base to collect the weapons.
