Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“The controls do seem to work with the valve index controls. However there is no rotation or any consideration for anyone with low mobility.”
“Game is fun; however, there are still some bugs and parts that kinda feel unfinished. I only give it a negative review because the dev seems to have abandoned this game. There haven't been any updates or fixes for a year.”
