The game offers a surprisingly large amount of content and playtime for a free VR title.
Combat mechanics, especially melee and stealth, provide satisfying and immersive experiences.
The game supports various weapons (sword, shield, bow, crossbow, spears) with intuitive controls and engaging gameplay.

The turning/movement system is awkward and frustrating, lacking smooth turning options and causing motion sickness for some players.
Hit detection and combat mechanics are inconsistent, with the sword often missing hits and shields not blocking properly.
The game feels unpolished in areas such as animations, enemy AI, checkpoint system, and occasional bugs or glitches.

The gameplay offers a variety of interesting mechanics such as stealth kills, enchantments, diverse weapons, and locomotion options, resulting in an enjoyable and challenging experience. However, some users criticize clunky combat, sensitive teleportation, poor turning mechanics, and occasional hit detection issues. Overall, while not flawless, the gameplay is solid and satisfying, especially considering the game's free status and impressive polish.
- “Huge environment to explore, great variety of enemies and weapons, stealth kill feature and throw mechanic, ability to dismember and enchant make this game enjoyable and challenging.”
- “This game has polish and all the mechanics work really well and feels good.”
- “Free game that rivals mid-level pay games in graphics and gameplay.”
- “The worst part about this game is the turning mechanics, though.”
- “It doesn't cause any motion sickness even without teleportation, but turning around mechanics is complete garbage.”
- “Buggy movement, horrible hit detection and no proper game mechanics (it's just wave and pray really) combined with a lackluster and generic story and world.”

The graphics are generally praised as good to excellent, with solid art style and immersive environments that enhance the visual appeal, especially considering the game is free. However, some users report frame rate issues, glitches, and occasional stuttering that detract from the experience during combat or movement. Overall, visuals are a strong point but occasional performance instability impacts gameplay for some players.
- “The world is huge and graphics are excellent.”
- “The mechanics are good, the graphics are great, the music is wonderful.”
- “Free game that rivals mid-level pay games in graphics and gameplay.”
- “The graphics are decent, but the frame rate and stability of the game leaves much to be desired.”
- “Running an Oculus Quest 2, I wasn't able to respond to situations as well as I would have liked, and graphics flipped out a lot.”
- “And finally the game just looks awful: it's dirty brown 'realistic' early 2000s visuals.”

The story in the game is minimal, mostly limited to an introductory segment, with many users noting a lack of depth or development. However, several reviewers feel the combat and gameplay are strong enough to compensate, suggesting that a richer story would significantly enhance the experience. Overall, the narrative is seen as underdeveloped but holds potential if expanded.
- “This is by far the best VR game I've played. I've spent so much time in it, it's amazing. It completely immerses you in the game story itself.”
- “So I didn't really know what to expect with this game, I thought it was going to be like a wave shooter hack and slash type of game but this game has full movement and a fairly decent sized world. Combat is great and fairly intense imo. Story, at least from what I've seen, isn't there really besides the beginning but this is a really good game especially for being free; something I would pay for. Anyone who owns a VR headset should get this.”
- “Add a better richer story and it's a winner.”
- “No story and only about 20 minutes worth of playing with weapons.”
- “Buggy movement, horrible hit detection and no proper game mechanics (it's just wave and pray really) combined with a lackluster and generic story and world.”
- “So far only story is in the intro.”
