First of all let's get out of the way: Green Hell VR's Quest Edition is not the same experience as flat screen gaming.
While this take follows the same rhythms as the main story of the original jungle survival title,
it's a more focused and streamlined version that reduces the number of objects and structures you can create,
the threats you'll encounter, and the overall size of the map.
It's an eyebrow-raising move by developer Incuvo (taking the reins of Creepy Jar), ​​albeit rooted in the logic of sound;
The Quest is a standalone viewer after all,
and the dense foliage and wide-open areas simply wouldn't be able to function on the platform without serious performance hits.

And, yes, part of the depth of that initial experience is lost in the transition.
The Quest Edition is indisputably shorter and easier than the original.
But, before you take that pitchfork, I don't think you should even take it up on these changes.
Firstly because a full version of Green Hell in VR with all the bells and whistles is still coming to PC in a few months,
and secondly because the Quest version is actually still a great game in its own right.

One thing that has remained unchanged in Green Hell Quest (which is what I will call it from now on to avoid
confusion with the next version for PC VR) is the narrative.
You are still the protagonist Jake Higgins, who finds himself separated from his partner, Mia,
on a journey back to the Amazon rainforest and must fight for survival as he searches for an escape.
If you've played the original game, this campaign will work as a stripped-down version,
with many of the map's key areas returning, only now connected by shorter areas in between.
