VR Walking Simulator Reviews

I'm happy with it. Not a ton to do except look around, but that's the point. I came for the forest setting, was pleased with its density but wish it could be a larger or more varied area. The deserted town setting surprised me, and immediately became my favorite. At least one other review noted the footsteps are too loud and wished those could be turned off--in this latest version I was able to turn them off in the settings. In my initial review I wished there was support for smooth turning, now it's supported in the newer update! Smooth walk option worked well, and the update also has more walk speeds which I'm happy to see. Of the two newest environments, in one grass seems to all slide (not just tilt like blowing, but whole bottom moves... distractingly--rest of that map and the trees are great, though), and in the other new one plant density is very high near but visibly pops in not far away (with no options I found to opt for, say, lower density but extended pop in range). There are still a number of great settings, though!

I liked it a lot! I enjoyed walking around and taking pictures. I personally liked taking pictures of the mushrooms and birds, but there are lots of other beautiful aspects to the terrain. The graphics are gorgeous, the only other VR game with comparable graphics right now is Half-Life Alyx, and that says a lot.

I know it sounds stupid but I really didn't know that a VR game required a VR headset. I've never bought a VR game or a VR headset before. I think it should be in the description for clueless people like me.

I don't know why but this game make me feel relaxed just walking without thinking anything. Some animation look weird like grass movement in new meadows scene but I still recommend this game

kept getting disk write error messages after installing this game and updates, had to disable the Avast Antivirus shields to finish installing and updating this game, I don't know why I had to do this just for this particular game, I never had to do that for any of my other games I bought from Steam, hope updates fixes some of these issues with this game, other than that the walking around and exploring places is pretty good

Amazing concept, and in practise is not too bad. You can walk right up to a tree stump, and you need to be right on it, to see that it's generated. I'm a Bushwalker/Hiker of 40+ years, and the feel of the environment is spot on. Now the downsides are that there's this odd Clunking sound, when your using the control sticks to move in Walking mode. Obviously trying to simulate taking steps. But really annoyingly wrong, and you can't turn it off. The Bush doesn't make a sound other than the occasional twig breaking or rustle etc, when walking on it. The envronment is really small, but not to bad as an experience. UFO's? Really? lol Anyways, keep it up, you're on the right path. Pun intended. ;-)

Sometimes you just want to be in VR without having to fight or solve puzzles, this is perfect for that. I think this is a pretty decent experience for the price, and has a lot of potential to grow. a few bugs here and there but nothing major...locomotion could do with a bit of polish but all in all a good slow paced relaxing time. If you enjoy non gaming VR experiences, pretty much for the price of a beer, its worth checking out Would be cool to get a physical walking mechanic like happy run, could use it for some light exercise then

I've been waiting for more content like this since I got my Valve index and loved the tech demos where you enjoy nature outdoors. This game is exactly what I had been hoping for. You just walk around and enjoy a nice scene when the weather in the real world sucks outside. My only complaint is that it's too easy to accidentally pick up the camera or menu off of your waistline. Means I have to keep my hands raised in an unnatural way while walking. How about an option where the player can stash them in a backpack Alyx style? 5 bucks is fair and I hope the developer keeps going with this. If you make future scenes please try replicating some areas or trails from real life Canadian national parks. Also add some beaches! I don't really care for the alien / haunted mansion stuff. Also one reviewer said this is like VRChat... nope. Completely different vibe.

‘VR Walking Simulator’ is pretty much what its title suggests. You get to walk about a few small areas, some of which are better than others. You get woodlands, alien woodlands, a mountain and a post-apocalyptic town. You can teleport around or free move and you even get a camera to take a few images with. It’s all weird, it’s all kind of pointless, but yet…somehow I still managed to find some fun here. I explored, I took a good number of images and I even managed to sink into the scenery. If like myself you are happy to just wobble around a small 3D area exploring it this is the app for you. Those looking for a bit more fun or some actual gameplay will have to look elsewhere.

First things first the only huge map in this app is also in Blackwater Bayou VR which is pretty old and delisted so VR Walking Simulator is just repackaged old assets. Your menu system has a lot of options thankfully but it looks very ugly and the only map I would consider worthwhile to relax in is the forest. The issue is though that the game has so much pop in the idea you would be enjoying walking around is crazy. Is there any value, okay yeah this is dirt cheap and there are some birds by the water in the forest stage and I think that is relaxing but this feels like a 2017 VR game that you randomly see on Vive Infinity and not a brand new VR game to get excited about. I don't recommend it, just go for a walk in VRChat, every aspect will be better.
