There are differing opinions about sand but it's likely impossible that you can go somewhere sandy and not bring back some sand with you like in SandStrike IO. This is a scenario where it's all about sand, not in terms of mechanics and attacking, but in terms of surroundings. You are surrounded by sand and structures built within the sand while fighting among other people running through the sand. You're going to get sand everywhere but that's the least of your worries when you're out fighting. Don't let the sand get into your mind and cloud your accuracy, because otherwise you'll get buried in it.
About SandStrike IO
Sandy environments tend to stand out and stick in your mind for being so bright and having terrains that shift with all kinds of movement. In this game, you'll be moving around all over the place on foot and in vehicles. Despite how unappealing some people may find sand, the land it covers can be quite valuable. That's why you need to use your firearms and movement to come up with strategies and find vantage points to get the drop on your enemy. Sand makes you visible, but it also makes them visible so make sure you spot them first.

The goal is to score as many points based on the current game mode before your competitors can. Whether you're playing on a team or solo, you'll respawn in your prospective area a few seconds after death. The lobby before the match allows you to change your primary and secondary weapons, your special gear, and the sight you use. You can find more in the shop and buy them using coins and gems earned through playing.
When the game begins, you'll be spawned on one side of the map. From that point, you can begin exploring and seeking out the enemy. Direct hits on the enemy will be indicated by numbers bursting from the bodies. Your stats will appear on the bottom of the screen and your equipment will be shown on the left side next to them. Your health will be green while any armor you collect will fill up the blue bar. The match ends when the timer does or when one team or competitor has scored a certain amount of points.
There are also vehicles such as helicopters and armed jeeps to be piloted. Only a single person is needed to control both the movement and weapons.
Tips and Tricks
The usual armor is sand-colored allowing you to blend somewhat, but in an urban environment, you'll stick out very clearly. Vehicles are quite powerful and can protect you, but are difficult to maneuver in tighter areas. Remember to keep moving, have cover nearby, and use your shots efficiently.
