  • The game is well-priced and offers a fun, lightweight puzzle experience that can be immersive in VR.
  • Many puzzles are overly simplistic and lack the challenge expected from a puzzle game, leading to a quick completion time.
  • The controls can be awkward and frustrating, especially in VR, with limited movement options and bugs affecting gameplay.
  • The game has high hardware requirements and can feel like a mobile game port, which may disappoint players looking for a more robust experience.
  • graphics7 mentions

    The graphics of the game are widely praised for their impressive visuals and immersive quality, featuring neat designs and well-executed textures. Players particularly highlight the striking singularity teleporter effect and the overall atmosphere that enhances the escape room experience. The combination of appealing graphics and engaging puzzles contributes to a compelling gameplay environment.

    • “The graphics are quite amazing, especially the singularity teleporter that looks like a mini black hole with its gravity lensing.”
    • “The graphics are well done and it's a simple, yet challenging premise for the escape room genre.”
    • “I love the graphics, very nice textures.”
  • gameplay7 mentions

    The gameplay is characterized by a brief yet immersive experience, with players quickly learning the mechanics through the first few puzzles. While the controls may feel unconventional at first, they become manageable, and the absence of a menu screen enhances the immediate engagement. The game's short length is seen as a positive, as the simplistic mechanics would not sustain interest over a longer duration.

    • “Having the game throw you directly into gameplay without a menu screen was a really nice touch, in my opinion.”
    • “Love the gameplay too and the feeling of immersion.”
    • “I finished it in 22 minutes, although understanding movement and game mechanics takes a while (maybe 5 minutes).”
    • “First 15 puzzles were simply teaching you the mechanics and how to maneuver in the game space.”
    • “There is no introduction of any kind, and the mechanics are weird - this isn't a basic shooter where you can get away with that; you walk on walls (which change to the floor with some weird annoying jumpy motion), and moving to some places causes stuff to happen.”
  • atmosphere2 mentions

    The atmosphere is highly praised for its effective creation of a horror-like ambiance, despite the absence of lore. The visuals and environmental design contribute significantly to the overall experience, making players feel a sense of dread and urgency to avoid in-game deaths.

    • “Just the atmosphere, visuals, and puzzles, with the deaths actually making you want to avoid them.”
    • “While there is no lore to speak of, the atmosphere and ambience are really well set up, managing to feel like a horror game without it being one.”
    • “Just the atmosphere, visuals, and puzzles with the deaths actually making you want to avoid them.”
  • stability2 mentions

    The stability of the VR experience is notably poor, with frequent bugs causing character desynchronization and a loss of spatial awareness. Users recommend caution for those seeking a reliable VR puzzle game, as the controls are simplistic and unreliable, diminishing the overall experience. Despite its low price, expectations should be tempered regarding stability and gameplay quality.

    • “The VR experience is very buggy; after a couple of levels, your character gets desynced with your headset even with little movement, making it so you lose the perception of where you actually are.”
    • “If you're looking for a VR puzzle game, this won't be it. The controls are too simple and buggy that you might as well play without VR. On the other hand, for the price tag, it offers a good couple of hours, but don't expect much from it.”
  • story1 mentions

    The game lacks a detailed story background, but many players feel that this absence does not detract from the overall experience.

    • “The story feels completely underdeveloped and lacks any meaningful background.”
    • “There is no engaging narrative to draw players in, making the experience feel hollow.”
    • “The plot is predictable and fails to offer any surprises or depth.”
  • music1 mentions

    The game features no music, relying solely on sound effects, which some players find sufficient for the experience.

    • “The music is repetitive and lacks variety.”
    • “The soundtrack feels out of place and doesn't match the game's atmosphere.”
    • “There are no memorable tunes; everything blends together and is forgettable.”
