More about Vox Machinae
Steam's global achievement data puts about 7 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 10-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Of the 401 Steam-purchase reviews this site sampled, 13 come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to September 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 1,424 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 204 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 78 percent of the 446 reviews written there were positive, against 86 percent overall, and those are 38 percent of everything written about it.
At 10 hours it is a handheld-sized game, and Valve rates it Deck Verified.

What players say
The death of this game is one of the saddest things I've seen. It wasn't originally the most popular game on vr, but I would say that it's one of (if not) the best. This is one of the most innovative games I have played. I'm very glad they added a campaign so those who stuck around could still play this gem of a game. 10/10 I hope that this game comes to the spotlight and shines 1000 times brighter than it ever has.

Mechs feel a bit floaty and clumsy, but has a pretty good single player campaign.
Would be better if could have jump jets that move you forward and backwards instead of just side to side that's the only game mechanics that really sucks. You can't make long jumps at all and fail in missions because of that.
