How it feels

A chaotic, tongue-in-cheek VR firefighting romp where reckless destruction and over-the-top water weapons take priority over realism.

What players say

Players praise the creative paper aesthetic and fast loading times, but the teleport-only movement causes nausea for some. Controls are often called unintuitive, especially on Index. The humor splits people: some find it hilarious, others say it tries too hard and feels out of place. Most finish the game in one sitting, though a few call it repetitive.
