Minimum specs

The value story
83 discounts in the 8 years on record, a median of 60 percent off across all of them, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today's $14.99 at 50 percent off still sits 150 percent above the floor, so a deeper cut exists in its history.
It is pricier than 96 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 69 percent. Among the games that feel like it, SURV1V3 ($24.99, scores 53) beats it on value, while it beats SCP: Escape Together (free, scores 13).

What players say
I bought this game back in like 2018 when I first got a vr and haven't really touched it since. I recently got back into vr and seeing the negative reviews I did not think I would enjoy my time playing this game. I ended up finishing the game and I think this was one of the best vr games that I've played so far. Now that might not be saying a lot because all of the games I have are 2018 or older but I really enjoyed...
2 more reviews, 1 not recommended
I half expected to be getting a refund after seeing the negative reviews, but for me it's a really fun game and the motion controls on pico 4 are all working correctly, it would be nice if the devs came back to it and polished it up a bit, because it definitely could do with a bit... AA doesn't seem to work in this game for some reason and performance can be a bit hit or miss occasionally but not bad enough to stop...
Game worked great back on the Oculus Rift CV1. Never finished it though so now years later I am back with a Oculus (or I guess now Meta) Quest 2... Not so great... lol First off hands point up so to point your weapon straight you are pointing almost straight down and to point down you are gonna have to have alien wrist joints! Luckily going into SteamVR settings and controller settings I noticed a few people already...
