Face waves of red enemies in minimalist environments, taking on each encounter alone. The game puts you directly into the action through VR, with enemies and incoming bullets surrounding you.
Time advances in response to your movement: stay still to assess threats, then move to dodge, aim, and attack as the action unfolds. Grab guns and melee weapons, and throw weapons or other objects when a shot is not the best option.
Progress through a sequence of combat levels, then take on replayable challenges and endless modes. These include headshot-only runs, score races in bullet-time or real-time, attempts to finish without shooting, and tougher encounters with faster enemies.
Positive reviews often enjoy how movement controls the pace of combat, turning each encounter into a physical exercise in timing, aiming, and dodging. Players also describe the VR action as immersive and enjoy feeling like an action-movie hero, as well as replaying challenges and pursuing achievements. Many reviews object to story scenes being removed after release, saying the remaining narrative feels incomplete; other recurring complaints include the short main campaign and the space needed to play comfortably.
