The gameplay is characterized as a typical VR batting practice simulator with outdated graphics and limited, repetitive content. While it features highly realistic and responsive hitting mechanics, the overall experience is hindered by broken core mechanics and a lack of innovation, leading to a recommendation against the title.
“It has the best mechanics out of all VR baseball games I've played.”
“The hitting engine and mechanics are very realistic, responsive, and accurate.”
“This is just a typical VR batting practice simulator with outdated graphics from 2017 that has extremely limited content and repetitive gameplay.”
“In a year, when the Vive trackers are more ubiquitous, I'm sure we will have third-party weighted bat handle grips that will take care of the problem, but until then this poses a hole in the gameplay.”
“But the core mechanics are broken, so I can't recommend this title.”

Users express a desire for a more structured "story mode" in the game, where players could face off against pre-programmed pitchers with varying pitch styles to achieve specific scoring goals. Currently, the game lacks this narrative-driven element, which some players feel would enhance their experience.

Users have reported stability issues related to the ability to refresh and reload pitches, particularly when accessing the Steam/Vive menu, which can cause the game to glitch and require a reset to fix. This problem seems to occur specifically when the bottom button is used to open the external menu, while in-game menu interactions remain functional.
“Many users have reported that the ability to refresh a pitch and reload the pitcher bugs out. Some say they have to reset the game to fix it. I encountered this issue myself, and it seems to glitch when you press the bottom button to open the Steam/Vive menu. Opening the in-game menu to change pitch selections works fine, but using the other method causes the pitch to fail to reload when you don't make contact.”
“The game frequently experiences stability issues, particularly when trying to refresh pitches. I've had to reset multiple times just to get it to work properly, especially when accessing the Steam/Vive menu.”
“I've noticed that the game becomes unstable when attempting to reload pitches. It seems to glitch if you open the Steam/Vive menu, which disrupts the pitch reloading process.”
