“one session in the game so far but it's honestly (one of) the best arcade vr shooters, like ever. I was never that much into roguelikes but never hated it either, but the whole atmosphere of the game, praying being one of the most innovative mechanics surprisingly, sets it so…”

“I have several hours of gameplay on the Quest, I purchased the pc version and it really renewed my interest for the game, I couldn't say why but the PC version looks and play much better. Anyway, I'm definitely gonna try to complete this one it's pretty fun”

“Good concept but it's really held back by it's abysmal holographic sights, clunky gunplay and piss poor boss design. Don't waste your time and money with this game.”
