    The gameplay in "Final Assault" is praised for its engaging and strategic real-time strategy mechanics, offering a mix of intense multitasking and casual lane-pushing elements. Players appreciate the game's high replayability, diverse unit designs, and immersive VR experience, although some note that the controls can be basic and may lead to discomfort during extended play. Overall, the game is seen as a fun and accessible entry into the RTS genre, particularly for VR enthusiasts.

    • “The core gameplay is fun; there are lots of difficulties, and the game is not easy on normal, so there's a lot to be had from this game if you're into strategy.”
    • “The game's varied units and maps, as well as its strategic gameplay, offer a high degree of replayability.”
    • “I love RTS games, and while the gameplay is simplistic, it's really engaging and fun, super easy to get into right off the bat.”
    • “The only real problem with it is the fact that you have to bend your neck a lot in order to play, and it starts to hurt pretty bad after 2+ hours of gameplay. It could cause neck problems if played too much.”
    • “It's just that the gameplay is pretty bad.”
    • “While it was very cool to see the toy-like environment in VR, the gameplay loop was more or less the same, level to level.”
  • graphics
    46 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game have received widespread praise for their impressive detail, vibrant colors, and charming art styles, ranging from cartoonish to old-timey propaganda.

    • “My computer can't seem to run this game even on lower graphics.”
    • “My issue is that I was playing with Oculus Link (though I do have a nice computer that can run pretty much whatever) and I was getting huge FPS drops when looking at the planes (even when I turned the graphics way down).”
  • story
    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story aspect is noted as a mixed bag; while it provides a solid foundation for a VR RTS experience, many players feel it lacks depth and detail, reminiscent of older titles like Red Alert 2.

    • “It has a really interesting story mode that I'm just now getting into, but if you're a fan of RTS games and VR, this is a must-have!”
    • “Proves a great foundation for VR RTS, but like with most games, a lack of story and detail... think Red Alert 2 from 20+ years ago as a comparison.”
    • “Story: lol this is all gameplay, baby.”
    • “I could not get past the first campaign mission, even though I tried 3 times after watching the tutorial on YouTube.”
