From Steam reviews

Review notes

Blast Em! is worth a closer look if you want nautical, controller friendly, emotional story, and short sessions.

Best for players who want nautical, emotional story, controller friendly, and short sessions.

Check more carefully if you dislike repetition or grind.

nautical

Setting

Water, boats, fishing, or sea travel are important to the feel.

controller-friendly

Fit

Controller, gamepad, or Steam Deck play comes up as a plus.

emotional-story

Tone

The story is framed as affecting rather than just plot-heavy.

grindy

Friction

The loop may feel repetitive if you dislike grind.

deckbuilding

Play style

Card choices, deck shape, and synergies matter.

short-sessions

Fit

It works when you want something easy to start and stop.

replayable

Fit

The structure gives reasons to return rather than finish once.

Steam review snapshots

which was of particular annoyance to me due to my mouse being overly sensitive, and theres also no controller support….
Controller Friendly
Something I havnt seen many people mention and thats the music, although only a few tracks play in repeat and after awhile…
Grindy
Shooting is totally automatic and you control the ship with your mouse.
Nautical
Ultimately, it's fun in short bursts, but grows tedius and boring very quickly.
