The game's story is largely criticized for being minimal and feeling more like a tutorial than a substantial narrative, with many players expressing a desire for more engaging missions and character interactions. While the gameplay is praised for its fun mechanics and open-world exploration, the lack of a meaningful story detracts from the overall experience, leading to calls for future updates to enhance the narrative elements.

- “Even if it was in the form of a 10-minute mission added each week leading to a greater story!”
- “This game is good; while it lacks in story from what I have seen, it's great to just fly around and have fun.”
- “Feels a bit like a demo as the story isn't really significant and challenges are overall fairly easy.”

Gameplay is generally praised for its smooth mechanics and variety of powers, with some users noting it offers better grappling mechanics than official Spider-Man VR games. However, some feel it resembles a tech demo rather than a fully fleshed-out experience, and there are concerns about potential gameplay monotony during extended sessions. Recent updates introducing new enemies and powers have significantly enhanced the gameplay variety, leading to a more engaging experience overall.
- “My opinions have very much changed in the enemy update; the new powers and enemies add much to the game, as well as a new mini-boss type enemy, giving gameplay a lot more variety. The new enemies added make you use all of your powers and add much more variety in gameplay.”
- “Decent little superpower sandbox 'sim' with arcadey gameplay and a fair variety of powers.”
- “This game has better Spider-Man mechanics than the official Spider-Man VR games.”
- “In terms of gameplay, it more resembles that of a tech demo rather than a fully complete, or, 'feature complete' game, especially with the price tag.”
- “I hope more content gets added as there's not enough meat obviously to sustain a ton of gameplay.”
- “Final rating 8.5/10 additional notes: as fun as a superhero game can be (especially in VR), although sometimes the gameplay can get a bit dry during long periods of time playing it in one sitting (or should I say standing).”
