The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with many players finding it boring and lacking depth, as it primarily involves throwing disks at turrets without engaging mechanics. While some appreciate the retro feel and simple arcade style, others criticize the physics and lack of mixed reality support, leading to a frustrating experience. Overall, the core gameplay fails to provide enough variety or enjoyment for most players.

- “A perfect mix of old school arcade, super simple gameplay, and a good workout in VR.”

The graphics received a mixed review, earning 3 out of 5 stars.

- “The simple but pleasant graphics work well.”
- “Within those walls are polygonal enemies in that same art style shooting back at you that must be defeated before you can progress.”

- “The graphics are quite dated and lack the polish expected from modern games.”
- “The character models are blocky and lack detail, making it hard to connect with the game world.”
- “The environments feel flat and uninspired, which detracts from the overall immersion.”

- “The platform moves and the music is bumping; it feels like a rhythm game but plays strategically differently because the platform stops at points until all enemies are cleared.”
- “The music was good at first, but it also got too repetitive after an hour of playing.”
- “The music is chill, but it feels repetitive and lacks variety as the game progresses.”
- “The platform moves and the music is bumping, but it often overshadows the gameplay, making it hard to focus on strategy.”
- “While the music sets a nice atmosphere, it doesn't really enhance the overall experience and can become distracting.”
