The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with many praising its addictive mechanics and overall improvement over the first installment, while others criticize the frustrating grabbing mechanics and slow character movement. Players have reported issues with room scale functionality and bugs that detract from the experience, leading to a sense that the gameplay feels unfinished. Despite these drawbacks, the game is still considered enjoyable, especially for fans of creative prison-style gameplay.
- “I still want to say that the game is peak, it's way better than the first one that was very good. This one has way more mechanics; it's more anxious and chill at the same time, it's chaos and tranquil at the same time.”
- “10/10 game so far on general gameplay.”
- “Honestly would rate this one of the top 10 most enjoyable VR games because the gameplay loop is just so addictive.”
- “I don't know how this game has a single good review. Room scale doesn't work; I have a room that's 9 feet by 9 feet. How is that not big enough for room scale? Also, when selecting standing/seated mode, you can't change settings, can't change rotation settings, and when playing in standing mode, I can touch each in-game wall, meaning I have more than enough space to play in room scale mode. Grabbing stuff in this game is just as bad, if not worse, than how it is in the first game. Nine times out of ten, when two objects are near each other, it always grabs the object further away from my hand, sending the object I wanted to grab flying. This isn't a problem in any other VR game. The turning speed is monstrously slow, and the character's walking speed is like someone with two broken legs... with obesity... and is paralyzed... while glued to the floor. I loved the first game; the only problem was the grabbing mechanics. This game is horrid and just as unplayable as Thief Simulator VR was on launch, but the game has been out for months now, and none of these problems are fixed.”
- “However, this game being released just a few days ago still has many bugs. I'm sure that everything will be fixed in future updates, but at the moment, things like the grabbing mechanic are absolutely awful. I hate how the hands slowly snap to objects and then teleport back to my controller, which causes me to fling objects everywhere when all I'm trying to do is pick up one object.”
- “The gameplay feels like it's in alpha, and the co-op is trash.”
