I must say, it's an absolute blast! Rotten Apple offers an adrenaline-pumping experience that left me hooked from the very start. Can't believe how fast the first hour went by :)
The gameplay mechanics are intuitive and easy to grasp, allowing players of all skill levels to jump right in. Armed with a variety of weapons, you'll navigate through hordes of zombies in an attempt to survive. The gunplay is satisfying, and the sensation of reloading weapons and taking down enemies in VR is incredibly immersive.

I love it!!! Its beautifully done. I got lost in it and before i knew it an hour and a half had passed by in a snap. The reload is fun and smooth, the movement is comfortable. I especially liked the fact you can play music 💜🥳, it was so much fun dancing while killing zombies. The slot machine is super fun as well, you can get cool perks and they stack. Theres a depth to the game as far as strategy as well. Let the ones with tanks in so you can shoot the tanks if surrounded in closed space, DONT let the shield guys in because its almost impossible to hit them once they are, opening up gun cases at set number of levels to maximize success, ect. Love it, just love.

Update: after a year
The game showed some potential but the game seems to have been more or less abandoned.
No content update since September in 2023 and the discord haven’t really been active in a long time and the last message is 5 month old.
First of all sorry for the long review here but the game just have a lot of stuff I wanted to mention.
I really like this game and have been supporting it since early in the alpha, I even had the opportunity to play with the devs a few times.
The devs are great, gives regular updates and interacts a lot with the community on their discord server, they even had a kind of role-play/competition where the winner got to put a Easter egg in the game.
They are still working on the game so patches and more content are coming regularly.
The game can be played with up to 4 players in co-op and have two game modes, story and wavemode, each mode then have 4 difficulties that adds both new zombie types and map modes(like day, night, foggy)
The story mode is in the style of games like After The Fall where you have to progress to through the map and defend yourself then move onto the next area to continue.
The wavemode part of the game has 2 maps as of right now, a small one and a bigger one.
You start with a simple pistol and have to earn money by shooting zombies and when you get enough money you can buy new weapons(right now you can buy a Desert eagle, shotgun or an uzi) or you can spin a slotmashine to roll for weapon upgrades(holo sight, bigger mags, more dmg, and more) or perks(some for just you like max health and weapon dmg or for the team like less zombies and power up duration).
You also have the chance for a zombie to drop a power up to gain a temporary boost like, no reload, dualwield and one hit kill. The maps even have a jukebox so you can plast some epic tunes while slaying the undead.
A few other tings worth mentioning are that the game has global leader boards for the different gamemodes both in solo and multiplayer. The games have a few trophies to collect so you can brag to you friend about after you get them.
You can either host the game yourself or use the in game browsing to find other games, keep in mind that the player base isn’t very big as it is still a relatively new and unknown game so maybe join the discord and plan a gaming session with a few of other people there.
TL:DR
If you want to take a few friends into a museum at night and blast some epic tunes on a jukebox while slaying the undead, then you should give this game a try. Just be careful of the infected dogs and giants

Overall good VR coop zombie game even tho it seems pretty basic but it isnt it can be really loaded especially if u are alone or just 2 the wavemode gets really hard after certain waves didnt try it yet with more than just duo but it could be fun for even more players too .
Bonus point for being able to kill the dog at the short story start
but in the end

Not worth more then $10.
First off I have a Quest 3/3080 GPU, so all testing was done with this equipment.
I really like the idea and context behind this game, but... The controller was just off and you couldn't adjust the targeting for the pistol and unfortunately it's really off. I found at times I had to hyper extend my wrist just to shoot straight. I only made it 40 minutes and was done. There is no one on multiplayer so campaign is really the only option. I did wave mode first, that was a mistake do campaign it teaches you the basic, better story. But either way the wrist issue was a deal breaker for me.

I played this game many times during the alpha/beta testing phase, and they have come a long way with it!
The wave mode feels solid and features a variety of so-called "danger levels" that change up the gameplay quite a bit. There are more than 5 zombie types, all of which bring different attributes and must be fought in different ways. The weapons are all equally "overpowered", which feels incredibly good, especially in a wave shooter.
Graphics are quite good, obviously you should not be expecting some kind of "Half Life: Alyx", since this is still a small dev team, but it still holds up quite well! Especially the fog and night map variations look gorgeous.
The first (and so far only) map in the game is relatively simple in design, but the story mode and the new museum map should significantly improve the replay value. Of course, I understand that some think the game is being released unfinished. "I don't want to play another half-baked game that rips me off". This game is not like that. The team behind it is working day and night on this game and will continue to work on it as best they can to iron out any bugs. Even just wishlisting it and stopping by later would help them a lot.
Oh yeah, did I mention that all modes can be played in multiplayer? Grab some friends and play it together. Believe me, it's worth it.

quick game-mill style game from the publisher. provides no actual gameplay besides shooting some zombies slowly approaching you with little thought. The price point should be well below the 15 it costs currently.

Nice new zombie shooter, good gore and gunplay, but very limited place for move in campaign make it feels like ordinary wave shooter.
Also manual reload and shooting haptic feedback would be nice..
