    • “I love this game; it was great fun! I do recommend it, especially as I played on the Meta Quest 2.”
    • “You have silencers, shotguns, revolvers, flamethrowers, molotovs, explosives, bazookas, a frying pan, etc. You can set the whole world on fire with your single-minded quest to kill any possible spider that may be out there.”
    • “Other than that, this game was a blast! I had great fun killing spiders and finding new weapons, even ones I hadn't seen in the non-VR version. I only noticed the massive spider on the roof during the second to last mission in my first run-through; I've never been more disturbed.”
    • “No real story here.”
    • “Just one issue, when using an Oculus Quest 2 the hands are on top of the controllers instead of where your hands are. Maybe this is on purpose, but I think you should be able to change an offset in the settings to your preferences.”
    • “I suggest you play it on the Quest 2 store (or whatever VR platform available) instead of on SteamVR.”
