The music in the game is generally praised for its powerful riffs, intense vocals, and immersive atmosphere that effectively support the VR experience, creating a strong emotional impact. However, some users find the soundtrack limited, repetitive, and of low quality, with few distinct tracks and minimal gameplay integration, making the overall experience feel underwhelming for its original price.
- “Every song has a different area and this puts you in a different mindset for each song.”
- “The general tone of music along with the brilliant riffs and amazing vocals create such an atmosphere for the mind that I am unable to withdraw myself from headbanging and enjoying the experience.”
- “The music is so powerful, I can see it in my goosebumps.”
- “The music was low quality and not enjoyable. It would be cool if you could import your own songs.”
- “With that out of the way, and coming from someone who has played hundreds of VR games and listened to thousands of metal albums, Mountain Mind - Headbanger's VR is just lacking in every way possible and quite frankly it's one of the more underwhelming musical VR experiences that one could have.”
- “You can 'headbang' with it I guess... but there's so little going on in each area that standing around and listening to a short, looping audio clip is pretty boring regardless of the music quality.”

The gameplay is minimal and may only appeal to a niche audience with specific interests, such as VR enthusiasts and fans of unique, unconventional experiences. Overall, it is described as "just gameplay" without standout features.
- “If you are part of the very, very specific audience that has a high-end VR headset, loves stoner rock, enjoys strange experiences, doesn't care much about gameplay, and has $10 to blow, then this is for you!”
