Big Walk Motion Sickness and Accessibility Settings
Where to find motion-reduction overlays, FOV, crosshair and challenge-skip settings, plus how to play without a microphone.

Reduce motion sickness first
Open Settings → General and test the Motion Reduction Overlays. They add a stable visual reference intended to make first-person movement feel more grounded.
On Windows or Mac, also open Settings → Graphics and increase the field of view. A wider FOV can reduce the closed-in feeling that contributes to discomfort. Change one option at a time and stop playing if symptoms continue.

The host enables challenge skipping through the accessibility menu when beginning a session. This covers challenges involving hearing, reading, speech, typing, reaction speed or fine motor control.
Can you play without a microphone?
Yes. In-game text chat follows the same distance, barrier and walkie-talkie rules as voice chat, so it preserves the puzzle design. Avoid using unrestricted external text or voice channels if you want the intended solutions to make sense.
