The gameplay of this 3D adaptation of Angry Birds is praised for its engaging mechanics, solid physics, and enjoyable level design, offering a fun and casual experience. While the addition of a level editor and community-made content enhances replayability, some players feel the game could benefit from more varied mechanics and content, especially given its price point. Overall, it retains the classic slingshot action while introducing new elements that work well in a VR setting, making it a delightful experience for both new and returning players.

- “The level design is very good, and the gameplay is engaging.”
- “Gameplay is your classic Angry Birds with fun new elements made possible with the VR, and the graphics are a delight.”
