Overall, the sentiment is that Toxic Commando is a fun game with solid gunplay and great zombie horde mechanics, enhanced by the addition of vehicles. However, its lack of content and issues with AI leave much to be desired. Many players find enjoyment in the campy 80s theme, though others criticize its execution. While not revolutionary, the game is seen as a fun experience for those who enjoy co-op zombie shooters, though it may not hold long-term appeal without additional content.

  • The game’s story and character dialogue receive mixed reviews; some find the campy 80s theme charming, but others find it cringeworthy and poorly written.
