Highly entertaining and hilarious party game that works well with friends and family, providing unique asymmetric VR gameplay that involves both VR and non-VR players.
The kitchen level stands out as the most engaging and fun, with creative interactions and enjoyable hide-and-seek dynamics that players appreciate.
Supports local multiplayer with up to 8 players via controllers or a mobile app, making it accessible and easy to set up for party play without needing multiple VR headsets.

Severely limited content with only three to four maps/mini-games available for several years, leading to repetitive gameplay and low replay value.
Lack of online multiplayer and unreliable Remote Play features restrict playing with distant friends, impacting accessibility outside local gatherings.
Some technical and UX issues including occasional bugs, connection problems with mobile controllers, clunky UI, unclear objectives in some modes, and the need for larger physical play spaces.

- “Making your friends go crazy with your input is just hilarious, very well designed, probably the best of all minigames!”

The gameplay is enjoyable and offers unique asymmetric mechanics, especially in the kitchen level, but it suffers from a limited number of maps, unclear or unexplained mechanics, and a lack of content variety. Players appreciate the fun and depth of the current levels but desire more stages, clearer instructions, and improved controls to enhance the overall experience.
- “The gameplay is legitimately fun and entertaining for everyone playing (especially the person in VR), but it's suffering from a lack of content.”
- “There are only a few stages to play with, but the asymmetric gameplay adds infinite variety as PC players join in the fun on the same device.”
- “I can't understand why they don't develop more levels with similar mechanics to the kitchen considering it's by far the most in-depth and fun for both sides.”
- “The kitchen has the most potential to be fun with lots of players, but even then the gameplay and content is so limited, your players are tired of it in minutes.”
- “The gameplay on many stages has mechanics that are never mentioned anywhere; it's kind of just up to the players to figure out how to do stuff.”
- “Inconsistent distribution of powerups, flaky controls, and mechanics that aren't well (or ever) explained is why this game is still in early access.”

- “Even at this early stage there is an ample amount of customization and a huge replayability factor.”
