The game takes place in isolated Antartica and features Lovecraftian horror, making for a game that will be scary and isolated, which works well with VR.
Pro Low resolution of the game helps VR immersion
Due to Rift not having high resolution capabilities (as compared to a monitor), the game with its dated graphics just naturally translates better for playing on the headset.
Cons
Con Some stages are really dark
While this does add to the element of surprise in a horror game, it can be tough to tell what is around you and where to go due to the game having very dark stages, which can be frustrating.
Con In VR skybox moves with head movements
Can be fixed with high resolution texture packs that replace 2D sprites with 3D models.
