Overview

The player fights bots in a sci-fi setting using unusually designed guns, according to Japanese coverage at launch.[1] The developer's screenshot captions indicate that the player must keep moving or the helmet takes damage, and that cosmetic extras such as a top hat and moustache appear on the space helmet.[2] The Steam page warns that the game requires a lot of movement.[3]

The game uses tracked motion controllers and requires room-scale tracking with a minimum play area of 2 m by 1.5 m. It supports English only, and lists Steam Achievements and Steam Leaderboards.[3] At launch the game cost 798 yen, with a reduced price of 638 yen during launch week.[1]

Reception

Mogura VR recorded a positive user rating from nine Steam reviews as of 30 July 2016.[1] Steam user reviews were rated Mostly Positive as of October 2026, with 78 percent of 51 reviews positive.[3]
