Not much else like it and my kid loves watching dad's back so this is a winner! I don't know if I'm playing wrong but there didn't seem to be an ability to walk around beyond the space i had available in the room but if there is a way, I would be excited to try again.

YES. This hits all my zombie killing VR checkmarks. Motion sickness however is a thing, I GOT VIOLENTLY MOTION SICK. but that is to be expected with vr to an extent. I managed ~50 minutes first session. Factory gave me no issues but the city for movement i had to immediately quit. Will try it again after a nap and i aquire some motionsickness tablets. If i cannot do it on the next session I'd have to refund. NOT BECAUSE I DISLIKED IT but bc idk if id be able to handle getting sick like that every time
