Why you might like it

  • A free-to-play tactical shooter with real-world locations (Istanbul, Northern Iraq and other Middle Eastern settings), 18 maps, over 100 weapons and a built-in eSports tournament system.
  • Offered a wide range of modes including Free-for-All, Team Deathmatch, Sabotage, Capture the Flag and more, with 16 selectable characters.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • Developer MadByte Games effectively abandoned the game, with no updates since late 2019, leading publisher IDC Games to threaten shutting down the European servers entirely.
  • Long-running technical issues (crashes, matchmaking failures) went unresolved for years with no developer response, so treat the game as unsupported rather than actively maintained.
