Reviews are overwhelmingly enthusiastic about fluid, cinematic combat, striking visuals and animations, and varied boss fights and weapons. However, players are divided over combat feel and difficulty, and some criticize confusing storytelling, PC stuttering or crashes, and awkward controls or traversal. Overall, many consider it a standout action game, while recommending that prospective buyers check their PC compatibility and not expect a traditional Soulslike.

Overall opinion is divided, with many players praising the cinematic campaign and appreciating the classic Modern Warfare feel. The multiplayer and DMZ can be enjoyable for some, but are often undermined by strict matchmaking, aim-assist and cross-play concerns, and inconsistent hit registration. PC buyers also report substantial BIOS and launch hurdles, while the campaign’s length and full-price value leave some players recommending a discount.

Sentiment is strongly positive overall, especially for chaotic co-op horror with friends, gruesome atmosphere and memorable enemies, and replayable trials and regular content. The main reservations are repetitive objectives, unfair enemy behavior and technical issues, and AI-generated decorative art. Players are divided on solo play and how frightening the game remains over time, and the extreme gore and disturbing themes are either part of the appeal or a reason to avoid it.

Most reviewers enjoy CRACK as a funny, addictive co-op egg-mining game with satisfying upgrades and a quirky atmosphere, and many feel it is worth its low price for an evening with friends. The most common reservations are the short campaign, limited replay value, and repetitive or work-like stretches, along with frustrating controls and interruptions for some players. Reactions to playing solo and to post-launch balance changes are divided: some welcome a more relaxed, convenient experience, while others miss the challenge and teamwork of earlier versions.
