The sword fighting and weapon collision system is praised as one of the best in VR and non-VR games.
The game features a sizable open world with various enemies and allows for third-person locomotion that some players find engaging and fast-paced.
Combat requires strategy like blocking and shield bashing, making fights intense and somewhat satisfying, providing a decent workout.

The world feels lifeless, empty, and poorly designed with repetitive environments, leading to boring exploration.
Combat and movement mechanics are clunky with stiff enemy animations, frustrating enemy hit registration, and limited locomotion options disliked by some players.
The inventory system is cumbersome and unintuitive, sometimes causing accidental item usage and visibility issues in dark areas.

The music in the game is generally fitting, with at least one soundtrack effectively conveying the intended epic atmosphere. However, some tracks, like the exploration theme, clash with the game's fantasy fighting setting, and overall sound design has noticeable issues. While the music is appreciated, it would benefit from more refinement and alignment with the game's tone.
- “The music and the sound itself are fine; one soundtrack is very fitting to convey the 'epicness' the game tries to achieve.”
- “Some music doesn't fit the setting: especially the 'exploration theme' sounds more appropriate for a horror game than a fantasy fighting game.”
- “Cool music.”

The gameplay features smooth and intuitive third-person combat mechanics, showing some effort in design, but overall feels barebones and underdeveloped, resembling an early alpha version despite its $30 price.
- “The fighting is somewhat smooth and intuitive; you can tell some time was spent on the mechanics.”
- “The use of the 3rd person locomotion is a positive aspect of the gameplay.”
- “Here's the small amount of good and a short story about the bad: the fighting is somewhat smooth and intuitive, you can tell some time was spent on the mechanics; however, everything else is completely barebones. It's incredibly alpha for $30.”
