The overall experience heavily relies on the quality of opponent animations and AI during battles.

- “The grapple mechanic always just seems to catapult me into the pit.”
- “The developer chose not to do the job of a real game developer and create meaningful bespoke levels, narrative-based gameplay progression, and so on.”

The graphics feature a solid overall art style, but the realistic firearms stand out awkwardly against it. The lack of graphics options is criticized, especially for a PC VR game, while the map aesthetics are generally well-received, despite some frustrating design elements like difficult overhangs.
- “Realistic firearms that look unique in comparison to the otherwise solid art style.”
- “Realistic firearms that look weird in comparison to the otherwise pretty solid art style.”
- “There are no graphics options in the game - this is unacceptable for a PC VR game.”
- “The simple aesthetic of the maps was well done, in my opinion, although there are weird overhangs that make getting back up if you throw yourself over the edge very difficult.”
