The story emphasizes resilience and the unpredictability of life, highlighting that perseverance can lead to unexpected outcomes. However, players have expressed frustration with the game's difficulty, stating that it is nearly impossible to complete even the initial mission.
“Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
“It is literally impossible to complete even the first mission because of this.”

The graphics options in the game are limited, offering only basic settings with no resolution adjustments or meaningful tweaks, resulting in minimal visual differences across quality levels. Players have noted that even at the highest settings, the frame rate can reach an excessive 900 fps without noticeable improvements in graphics quality.
“There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks.”
“Besides that, there's not much to talk about. Very basic graphics options (you get to choose between low, good, very good, fantastic) which don't seem to change much, as evidenced by the game starting out in low to begin with. Even on high, the FPS counter still shoots up to 900 frames, which is ridiculous, and I don't notice any visual changes.”

The gameplay is centered around two main mechanics—visual interaction using the Oculus and sound-based actions—though it suffers from repetitiveness, as it recycles the same enemies and relies on a limited set of four core actions: staring, shaking the head, yelling, and whistling or singing. This lack of variety may lead to a monotonous experience for players.
“Now, this game uses 2 main mechanics creatively: looking with the Oculus and sound.”
“The game simply recycles the same enemies and throws on goggles, watermelons, etc., so you essentially have the exact same 4 mechanics of: staring, shaking your head, yelling, and whistling/singing high-pitched.”

The game lacks significant replayability for home use, with most reviewers suggesting it may only appeal to small children, making it less suitable for adult players seeking varied experiences.
“The last issue would be that although this game would be amazing to try out in a convention center, I don't see any replayability at home besides for small children (but who honestly wants to give kids an excuse to scream at the top of their lungs?).”
