Experienced on the Meta Quest 3

I'm totally flabbergasted. These devs from Pine Studio brought totally FREE VR support to Escape Simulator when they could have charged money. Instead, they wanted to reward their loyal customers for having supported their game with a totally FREE VR mode. I don't know what else to say other than thank you to these devs.
Is it the best VR port I have ever seen? No. A lot of the interactions are of the point & click variety. There is no smooth turning as well. However, the VR mode works perfectly fine. It does not take away at all from the very good game the devs have created as you can see from all the positive reviews.
These devs have also released totally FREE Portal and Among US DLC. They also have released a level editor so the community has created several free maps as well. These are just the best devs who have given so much to their community and I'm a proud to support them by purchasing paid DLC.
The puzzle escape rooms themselves are fun & challenging with several cool themed rooms. There's a lot of good, quality content here for the price. They also support online multiplayer co-op. I honestly don't know what more you can ask for. The visuals are on the cartoony side, but I like the art style.
Game is running on the Unity Engine. On my RTX 3080, I was getting a steady 72 fps. I did not experience any issues or bugs. Everything worked as expected and the experience overall was very polished. You have teleportation or full / smooth locomotion, along with snap turning (with degree of turn) or smooth turn (turn speed as well). You can play comfortably seated (you have both button crouch & magnet hands).
Rate 8/10. Thank you devs!
