The gameplay is generally enjoyable and familiar, especially for players accustomed to archery mechanics, reminiscent of the excellent Lab archery system. However, the bow and arrow mechanics are considered less refined compared to other VR titles like In Death, Sacralith, or Holopoint, which may detract from the overall experience.
“The game is great fun and the mechanics are familiar to anyone who has used the excellent lab archery system, or has ever picked up a bow and arrow.”

The music in the game has been criticized for its repetitiveness, as players often experience the same background tracks throughout their gameplay. Many users express a desire for more variety in both the music and the visual scenery to enhance the overall experience.
“A drawback is that you always play against the same background; it would be refreshing to change the scenery sometimes (and the music).”
