The story aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players enjoying the engaging characters and fun mini-games, particularly praising the humor of a character referred to as the "cat guy." However, others feel that the narrative in the sequel, Floor Plan 2, lacks the uniqueness and depth of the original, leading to disappointment despite its clever puzzles. Overall, while the story elements can be charming, they may not meet the expectations of all players, especially those seeking a more immersive experience.
“Dude, I love the new backstory mode and I love the cat guy. He's funny when he loses, and the mini-games are fun. I love the cat guy so much I changed my profile picture to him.”
“Update: now that I've played more (though mainly on the Quest version), the puzzles are clever and feel fair about how clues are provided. The charming characters continue to be a surprisingly enjoyable, major part of the overall experience.”
“Floor Plan 2 has its moments of fun, but Floor Plan 1 is, in my eyes, a better game. Floor Plan 2 just feels a lot shorter, even though there is a story in 2. One just feels more unique and better.”
“☐ no story”
“Unfortunately, this still fully feels like a quest port; it does not feel like PC VR.”
“I know the devs tried to make the PC VR better than the Quest version, but it still totally looks questified to me, sorry.”

The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the clever art style and polished character design, while others criticize the low-end visuals, likening them to a cartoon aimed at children. Overall, the graphics are seen as a step up from the original game, but opinions vary on their appeal and suitability for a broader audience.
“I think the art style is clever, I enjoy the characters, the humor is on-point, and the puzzles seem decent enough.”
“Gamer, I'm always on the lookout for cool games with awesome graphics.”
“This game is on another level, very well done puzzles and interesting characters, art style, and overall just a lot more polished than the original.”
“Also, this kind of low-end graphics makes the game look like a cartoon for small children. Then again, most quest games look like this.”
“After a few minutes, the extremely low-end graphics and simple, kids-oriented tutorial fully convinced me that I'm wasting time and money on this game.”
“I actually liked floor plan 1 better; it felt more like PC VR, even if that game also had low-end graphics.”

The gameplay features a unique mechanic that requires players to be physically close to objects, which can lead to spatial challenges and awkward movements within the play area. While the thumbs up gesture adds a cute touch, it can become frustrating during dialogues due to inconsistent recognition and the need for precise movements, detracting from the overall experience. Overall, players find the gameplay engaging, despite some limitations.
“However, I'm sometimes short on space to reach things. For the new mechanic to activate, you need to be somewhat close. It's not the usual 'teleport object by just pointing at it', so if you can't free up a lot of space, you sometimes just have to bend underneath tables and dodge play-area limitations to successfully execute in-game. You definitely miss being able to just rotate or move with your joysticks a lot of times.”
“The gameplay is great too.”
“However, I'm still sometimes short on space to reach things. Since for the new mechanic to activate, you need to be somewhat close, it's not the usual 'teleport object by just pointing at it'.

You definitely miss being able to just rotate or move with your joysticks a lot of times.”
“The thumbs up mechanic is also cute and unique, but during dialogs, it becomes very tiresome and often doesn't register that you're doing it to begin with (especially in elevator hints). You need to shake your thumb up and down trying to find the sweet spot and keep opening your hand to make the thumbs up gesture. It feels more like a mini-game searching for a hidden object with vibration haptics, rather than just confirming dialog.”

The atmosphere of "Vacation/Job Simulator" is perceived as lighthearted and somewhat childish, which some adults can appreciate, while "Floor Plan 2" is viewed as even more geared towards a younger audience, emphasizing a playful and whimsical tone.
“As an adult, I can accept the somewhat childish atmosphere and the humor in Vacation/Job Simulator, but Floor Plan 2 feels much more like a game for kids.”
