Absolutely awful. Poor optimisation, broken physics, frequent crashes and now abandoned by the developers.

FOR GOD'S SAKE PEOPLE OPEN YOUR EYES. THIS IS A PROPAGANDA TOOL BY THE RUSSIAN POLITICAL PARTY RODINA.

1. Why are the enemies the "Xenos"
The Greek word for foreigner is "Xenos"; Rodina is an ultra nationalist party seeking to curb migration. They became known for one of their controversial advertisements featuring migrants eating watermelon and throwing trash on the ground. The aim of Rodina is to normalise violence towards foreigners by systematically training people to shoot the "xenos"

2. What actually is Rodina?
We are told in the game that "Rodina" is a ship full of colonists that needs to be saved. In reality its an allegory for the Russian homeland, and the native Russian ethnos. "Rodina" means homeland in Russian, hence its significance. the aim of the propaganda game is to train loyal russians to defend their homeland from the evil foreigners and increase levels of nationalism in the populous.

3. Why is the main character really a robot?
This is a deep play on how collectivist ideology turns people into robots who are destined to obey their overlords. the same way soldiers are expected to act like machinery. Rodina aims to subconsciously normalise this by training the player to feel OK with being a cog in a giant machine
