Thirteen different islands and a set of game mechanics that's effective but compact.

This is the type of game I was looking for, it's not a "Game that shows off VR" it's a "Fun game (if you like the genre) that was adapted to work well in VR." Certainly I have minor complaints, it's not perfect, but the premise is similar to any number of other games with a reasonably nice VR interface.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.

Another pleasant surprise was the inclusion of Celtic Music in the soundtrack.
