Pros
Pro Vehicle combat is the best part of the game
While there are fighting sections of the game where Max is on foot, the most exciting and fun to play sections are where Max is driving. Having a grappling hook to hook onto enemies while driving is a very fun thing to do as well as using it to pull down buildings and structures and this is just one of the elements of driving that makes all the driving parts stand out.
Pro Fun sandbox
The game is based around being an open world sandbox where the player is free to do anything they like.
Pro Addictively challenging gameplay where "just one more game" is a constant
You will die, a lot, and that is the point. The game is challenging, but fair. It is as much about memorization as it is about precision of movement. This makes for a game that needs to be practiced, quite a bit, which should appeal to those who enjoy working for their achievements.
Pro Aggressive aesthetic that forces the player to adapt to succeed, which keeps the gameplay interesting
The visual design of the game consists of basic geometric shapes in bright colors that turn and blink, all while you are trying to stay focused on a little triangle in the middle. This can be distracting and is by design in order to try to trip up the player in their goal of continuing as long as they can.
Pro Great soundtrack that complements the gameplay perfectly
The soundtrack is done by BossFightSwe, who is very well known for their video game sounds.
Cons
Con No sense of urgency
While all of the gameplay takes place in a wasteland, there is no real sense of immediacy as the player is not ever going to starve or run out of water. This can pull the player out of the game due to not being very realistic and is pretty much geared towards keeping the game easy for casual players. Surviving in a wasteland should be tough, sadly it is not that difficult to do here.
Con Simplistic combat
Just as in other WB games the combat is simple and easy where in the player hits buttons timed with what button ques are flashing above an enemies head. Realistically one could just bash two buttons and make it through the games fights pretty easily.
Con May cause nausea
The fast spinning graphics could cause some people a bit of nausea.
