What players say

Players love the variety of climbing challenges and the option to play in VR or on a flat screen. The game is short, around 1-3 hours, and players are split on the controls, which some find clunky. The easy mode with checkpoints makes it more approachable, while hard mode offers no checkpoints for a tougher experience. Multiplayer co-op is a highlight.
