VR Nara Park Reviews

Good GOD this is awful. Just awful. Don't buy. Super laggy, instructions don't stay still long enough to read. 11/10 do NOT recommend. Got it to show VR to my brother and it just wasn't good for that at all lol. Then again, not sure what I was expecting at the price point.

The environment isn't big The game didn't perform well with random bits of slowdown Its teleport only with no turning buttons of any kind I've seen at least one of the character models in other games But I wont lie it was relaxing It did have gorgeous views and audio I enjoyed having NPCs and deer walking around and it wasn't expensive at all VR Nara Park has issues and feels like an early access title in some ways the grass for one looks horrible up close I hope that the studio behind this can add smooth locomotion and smooth turning I hope they can optimise the experience better Overall I am not disappointed, but I imagine most will find the experience too lacking. feel free to check out no commentary game play I recorded while playing if you are seeking more footage of the game. I played with an RTX 2060 computer on Oculus Quest 2 using Virtual Desktop. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1T4x5xU8J9Q

Not very good, not very good at all. This game made me lose confidence in my ability to buy games - it really is a waste of time. It is rough, very feature light and looks terrible. Might have been worth it for a trivial amount of money, but for £7 you expect more than 5 minutes worth of content.

A complete waste of time. No movement, woeful controls, and all there is some grass and a few deer. There's also random people walking around. Just pointless. 5 minutes of my life I won't get back.

Having been to the real Nara Park in Japan in the past I kind of knew what I was respecting here and for the most part, it does kind of deliver what it needs to. This is a very small experience in which you can teleport around a small area of a virtual recreation of the real-world park. There is no movement turning here whatsoever and just teleport movement. So you will have to play in a swivel chair or play standing up. It looks OK I guess especially as you can play about with the time of day, but there is nothing here to justify the £7.19. You can’t interact with anything and there is only a small amount of educational material telling you all about the park. Some might find this relaxing I suppose, but I just found it a little overpriced and a little bit pointless. While I have given it a thumbs down if I could give it a neutral rating I would have.
