    The graphics in the game are generally considered adequate but not exceptional, with some reviewers noting that while the visuals contribute to the atmosphere, they fall short of top-tier standards.

    • “The atmosphere is good, the graphics are good enough.”
    • “Gangsta Underground allows you to play poker in smoky basements with shady characters in VR, and it offers a unique aesthetic experience.”
    • “The graphics in this game are passable, but could be better.”
    • “Gangsta Underground allows you to play poker in smoky basements with shady characters in VR, but it doesn't offer much more than the aesthetic aspect and the fact that it's free.”
    • “I can't believe it's free for the amount of content and graphical quality; the devs could definitely charge for this game and I still wouldn't mind buying it.”
  • gameplay
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has been criticized for lacking excitement and depth, with calls for more content, diverse gameplay types, and improved AI interactions. Players find the AI's decision-making slow and the lack of recentering in VR gameplay to be a significant drawback, detracting from the overall experience. Overall, the game fails to deliver the high-quality gameplay expected alongside its visuals.

    • “The gameplay is very realistic, especially when played on a glass table at home.”
    • “The game should add more content, types of gameplay, and more opponents/AI to enhance the experience.”
    • “The gameplay could be more thrilling; adding expressions and interactions for the CPU when winning or losing would improve the experience.”
    • “Should add more content, types of gameplay, and more opponents/AIs.”
    • “The two major issues gameplay-wise are that the AI takes a long time to make choices, and there is no recentering, so the position of your headset is where your eyes will be, which feels quite amateur.”
    • “And make the gameplay a bit more thrilling because it's DOA poker; some expressions on the CPU should make them interact with the player when winning or losing.”
  • atmosphere
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
