+ Pros
- Parkour traversal system is accessible, expressive, and evolves meaningfully
- Tone and writing feel authentically lifted from classic TMNT cartoons and comics
- Donatello's bo staff and Michelangelo's nunchucks are great in VR
- Semi open-world structure offers enough choice to avoid feeling overly linear
- Combat grows more nuanced and rewarding by the halfway point
− Cons
- Lack of physical presence; players and enemies clip through each other
- Combat difficulty plateaus
- Enemy variety is limited and encounter sizes stay small
- Stealth system is so forgiving it borders on trivial
- Leonardo's twin katanas feel underwhelming
