The game has fantastic art and a solid core gameplay experience, showing great potential for a VR MOBA.
Each hero feels unique with creative abilities, and the gameplay is fun, especially when playing with others.
The graphics and audio are well-polished, contributing to an immersive experience in VR.

The game suffers from a lack of content, with only 7 playable characters and a limited 2v2 matchmaking system, making it feel shallow.
There are significant issues with player matchmaking, as many players report being unable to find human opponents, leading to repetitive bot matches.
The controls are poorly optimized for various VR systems, and there is no party system to play with friends, which detracts from the overall experience.

The gameplay is generally well-received, offering a fun and intuitive experience with smooth controls and engaging mechanics, particularly for a VR MOBA. However, it lacks some traditional MOBA elements such as items, a party system, and true progression, which may disappoint some players. The 2v2 format and destructible environments add a unique twist, but the absence of VR-specific mechanics is noted as a drawback.
- “Gameplay is fun, progression is next to none.”
- “Game length is perfect, many different mechanics for heroes.”
- “I did enjoy the gameplay; it's nice to have that MOBA feel in VR. The amount of abilities the titans have are wonderful, with 3 abilities and an ultimate, and it plays well this way.”
- “Yes, it doesn't have items, a party system (Steam UI can be used to join friends), or true MOBA mechanics all in place.”
- “Cons - 0 VR mechanics, emulating a mouse cursor with your right hand doesn't cut it; there are no progression/items, no forest creeps, nothing.”
- “Gameplay: being the only MOBA game I know of in VR, this is truly very good.”
