Nature Treks: Together

I just would like to say that the game seems to be abandoned and is still in early access mode. Nothing has been update for a year now. So you might want to keep an eye on you refund time if you don't like it in its current state. Because i don't think anything is going to be added or improved. Disappointing, because i really wanted to see this grow.

So disappointed with this VR experience. Absolutely nothing has changed since I purchased it back in 2021. The developer doesn't seem to make any changes requested in the Steam discussions and has possibly even abandoned it. It's still an online experience only with just a hand full of maps. You must sign in and join a public room and be ok with others joining you, which I'm not. The graphics are very blurry and the optimization is very poor. I was getting constant frame rate drops with an RTX3080 and i9 processor even on the smallest island with the graphic setting turned down. And for some reason, nighttime comes way too quickly and you find yourself standing in the dark with no option to remain in the daylight. Everything also seems more directed towards a multiplayer experience. Overall, there is very little reason to keep this on my hard drive. A MUCH better VR experience in my opinion is Guided Meditation VR.

I really appreciate the idea of the game. There are so little virtual experiences where we can relax in a beautiful serene surrounding. The idea of a campfire where we can chat looking at sunset is also outstanding. However I can’t recommend “Nature Treks: Together” because of two serious drawbacks. First of all: there are no private rooms. Only the common one. It destroys the idea of relaxation completely. How can I relax when a complete stranger can appear on the island any minute? I would love to invite some friends to have a good time together. For socializing there are plenty other games. The second drawback isn’t that serious but still the islands are too small. Also there is no such variety of bioms like in “Nature Treks VR”. The game seems to be abandoned (the last update was on January 2022), so I don’t expect anything will change soon. That’s why I don’t recommend it.

Very relaxing and fun! Great to play with kids, too.

I like the atmosphere and meditation style music and realistic scenery's of this game, unfortunately it has problems running. I don't care for multiplayer or the expression stuff. I have Quest 2 with rtx 2080ti, i7 cpu and only the opening menu of the game is clear and crisp and sharp. In VR the islands are so blurry and the whole thing just lags and then crashes and this is on the medium visual setting. Any suggestions ? Developer please retest and update. Can't play it for now cause it just runs badly, blurry and crashes my computer. I am able to play very high graphical fidelity in other games so I am sure my system can handle better visuals than what I got from this game so far. Can't recommend for now but will change my recommendations later if the game starts working.

After some of my more intense workouts in VR I enjoy cooling down with experiences like this one or Kayak VR. Just sitting down under the trees, happily doodling some musical lines and watching the waves crash on the shore is a relaxing experience in itself. But yesterday, I also got why they implemented the always online multiplayer mode. There I was, strolling around the empty map as always - when suddenly I see a blue shimmer in the distance. Another person. The interaction was minimal: they waved, I waved back and we went our separate ways, enjoying our own corner of the island. But that tiny moment of silent acknowledgment of another human being on what is, essentially, a deserted island felt strangely meditative and enjoyable. It's also a extremely pretty game: the different biospheres feel believable and the day/night cycles add a lot to the experience.
