The story experience is notably brief, typically lasting between 15 to 30 minutes, which contrasts with the advertised 1-2 hours. Players express disappointment in the lack of immersive audio elements and a richer narrative, which are often expected in VR games.
- “The whole story experience probably takes 15-30 minutes, just depending on your pace and your ability to find the right items.”
- “With a VR game, I expect 3D sound in the game, whispers in one ear, subtle noises in the distance, and a richer story.”
- “The whole story experience probably takes 15-30 minutes, just depending on your pace and your ability to find the right items. The store lists the experience as 1-2 hours, and I just don't see how, even if you are looking for every item, that is accurate.”
- “Finished the story mode in under 30 minutes and spent 20 minutes playing with the ping pong table.”

- “The music in this game is incredibly immersive, creating an emotional connection that elevates every moment of gameplay.”
