27 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
The games enemy characters are very lively and "real" despite the pixelated texture style just because the art in this case benefits from great sharpness and execution, they will bring some colourful and heart pounding arcade-style action in VR.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Ironic Sci-Fi B-move feel, great graphics, effects, sound and polish, great controls on different VR systems, you will find nothing of typical VR low quality clunkiness with this title.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
- fun modifiers for runs (I only play with oldschool modifier at this point because it makes you faster and adds an inventory)
