The Museum of Other Realities offers a unique and immersive VR experience that showcases stunning and interactive art, making it a must-visit for art enthusiasts.
The ability to explore the museum with friends and the inclusion of artist interviews enhance the social aspect and engagement with the art.
The game effectively utilizes VR technology to create a captivating environment that feels like a real museum, with a variety of exhibits that encourage exploration and interaction.

Movement options are limited, with slow teleportation and floating mechanics that can be frustrating and lead to disorientation.
Some exhibits lack depth and can feel underwhelming, with a significant portion being static or simplistic art pieces that do not fully utilize the potential of VR.
The absence of smooth locomotion and a settings menu for graphics adjustments detracts from the overall experience, making navigation cumbersome.
