What players say
Players describe The Time Machine as a short, confusing VR experience that blends historical tragedy with surreal horror and comedy. It compares to the developer's previous game The Utility Room, and some players note the emotional impact depends on knowing the referenced real-world events. A few report performance problems on the Meta Quest 3.
