The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some praising the smooth and stylized visuals that enhance immersion, while others criticize the low-resolution and blocky appearance, lack of graphical options, and a sense of emptiness in the game environment. Overall, while the graphics are generally considered good, there are significant areas for improvement, particularly in interactivity and detail.
“Easy but informative graphics and well-chosen music immerse you in the game experience!”
“Very nice, stylized graphics with a little bit of player customization.”
“Very simple, but detailed graphics, well-chosen music are deeply involving you into the game process!”
“But here's the problem: the game is considered as 1.0 and not an early access game when it clearly feels like one. Many things should have changed or more interactions should be made, make the place more alive, fix body problems when sitting that were quite obvious, and provide a real panel of graphical options other than simply downscaling resolution.”
“Graphics are blocky and low resolution; the lobby was deserted.”
“Performance was not the worst, but it's lacking. There are no graphics options, just changing resolution from SteamVR per game settings.”

The game's optimization is generally considered subpar, with limited graphics options available, forcing players to rely on SteamVR settings for adjustments. However, with some modifications, users have reported improved performance, achieving decent frame rates of 80-90 fps on an RTX 2060 Super at reduced settings.
“After making some adjustments in the SteamVR settings, I was able to achieve significantly better performance. At 60% resolution, the game still looks great on my Index and runs smoothly at 80-90 FPS with an RTX 2060 Super.”
“The performance has improved considerably after tweaking the settings, allowing for a more enjoyable experience without sacrificing too much visual quality.”
“While the game initially had limited graphics options, optimizing through SteamVR settings made a noticeable difference in performance.”
“Despite making adjustments in the SteamVR settings as suggested by the developers, the game still struggles with performance. Even at 60% settings, it only manages to run at a decent 80-90 fps on an RTX 2060 Super.”
“The optimization is severely lacking; even with tweaks, the game doesn't perform as expected and often dips below playable frame rates.”
“I was disappointed to find that no matter how much I adjusted the settings, the game still suffers from significant performance issues.”
