I was super excited to play this for the first time. I waited for my headset to charge and I downloaded it. I went in and waited for the loading screen to finish. I was super excited but then all I saw was a computer. I waited and waited and waited but nothing was happening! I'm also on meta quest 2.

*Dread or Dead*. It's one of the coolest horror games on the Meta Store right now, and it's free! The gameplay loop is extremely enjoyable, and there's a lot of replayability. Instead of an AI controlling the monster, a player takes on that role, which adds an extra level of scariness since you know another human is chasing you. You can collect ore, which adds more to the gameplay loop, and you can use that ore to purchase equipment, accessories, and more. It all helps you in some way. You should definitely check out this game!

I think that there is something wrong because when I play this game, I load in. Correct. But when it shows the computer & mouse, the tv goes blank (black). Then I can’t play.. help

Community Media Manager here. We hear you. We are aware of the bug where the computer is empty upon launching the game. A temporary fix for this is simply restating your game until it works. This game has a lot of bugs and we’re working on fixing them. Thank you for your patience. If you have a problem with a purchase, you can contact me on the offical Dread or Dead TikTok account or you can dm me on discord @abrokensonnet.

This game is very scary and fun, it’s one of my favorite games. But when I was playing as the monster in the refurb map, nobody was dying when I touched them, I put my hand on them, nothing happens, I put my face on them, nothing happens, I put my whole frickin body on them, they still don’t die. This was really pissing me off and now I never want to be the monster again.
