Do not purchase this game; there are no servers. At first, I erroneously believed it to be the PC version of Elysium VR. It has proven to be an absolute waste of money.

Recommended Dec 30, 2021

Has a lot of potential. A fun game if there is people to interact to. I highly recommend it!

Recommended Aug 10, 2021
