"The plot may as well be non-existent. Behemoth makes the most of its medium, but I can’t wait for the first VRPG to abandon these archaic design philosophies in favour of complete virtual freedom."

"Unfortunately, “Behemoth” disappointed me a lot. The simple level design is boring with little interactivity and dull puzzles. The fights and climbing passages are marred by tedious controls. The game also suffers from numerous technical problems, ranging from amusing glitches …"
