Single player seems like a decent 5 dollar pick up but multiplayer seems completely broken.

I cant even play the game properly because of a bug where everything i pick up shakes around. It doesnt show a health bar or even tell you how to use potions or these random scrolls you find. The fighting could be a lot better, it doesnt feel like my hits register and blocking is more of a luck thing. Look to 'Vanishing Realms' for good combat. The walking animations seem kind of bugged for the goblin where it looks like hes walking with his feet too close together to where it clips through eachother. The model for the mages with one eye dont really fit next to the more complex goblin model, i hope they udate that in the future to where they have a robe or at leat a 3-D eye rather than a slapped on 2-D one. The particle effects and sounds for the magic could be better and its hard to block them when youre close, to the point where they just get cheap shots at you. At this point in time it'd be better off as a free-to-play so dont buy it for $20 unless you want to support the developers. I really hope in the future they fix some of these issues, i cant even get past the first level with a sword shaking everywhere.

Great game that captures the dungeon crawler feel in VR. It's simple with no overly complicated systems to clutter your play experience, yet it can be difficult enough (when played on higher difficulties) to give a satisfying challenge.
This is NOT one of the many VR games where you teleport to locations, stand still and kill all the enemies charging at you. Trackpad locomotion is used to navigate the dungeon, strafe/dodge enemy attacks and sneak up behind enemies for a first strike.
Pros:
Immersive
Satisfying combat
Hunting for loot is addicting
Great inventory system
Great replayability
Easy to learn, difficult to win (on higher difficulties)
Cons:
Low Environment variety
Med/Low Enemy variety
AI is not very smart

Really fun game. Combat just feels right, dungeon crawl and randomized enough. Love the way you enchant your weapons.
Graphics are bare but in VR I much prefer smooth over intricate ... helps with the immersion IMHO
However the game REALLY needs;
Map button? Seriously, how is this not there or am I missing it?
Stats button? Don't know what my health is unless it's close to death.
Drinking a potion gives no indication on if it worked (am I drinking it or pouring on my body? I dunno)
Otherwise a really great purchase
