User reviews & Ratings
Explore reviews from Steam users sharing their experiences and what they love about the game.
dont worry, its not a a horror game. Physcological Horror? maybe. It reminds me or The Invincible and SOMA. If you loved those games, you'll LOVE this one. Its relatively short but it didnt end too soon or abruptly. The pacing was nicely done. Quite memorable. The puzzles were nice too. I mean, for an earlier VR title, it's good. I enjoyed it. Altough, one thing to note: if you have motion sicknesds, dont force to play this while standing. Change the movements to teleport rather than jump. I get it, you want to pristine experience, but the vomiting you'll get if you cant handle it, is not worth it. Not even the dizziness/headache. Its not that its not designed well, its just the nature of VR legs. If you've just gotten a VR headset, this is an amazing game to get started in.
Runs smoothly standalone on the Steam Frame without stuttering or glitches. A few issues with running it streamed from Bazzite but that's more of an nvidia/linux/vrcompositor interaction on my PC. The puzzles are not too severe, but still give a satisfying feeling when you complete one. The story didn't end up where I thought it would. I was pleasantly surprised at the end. Might be a bit on the shorter side, but my only complaint there was that I was having a good time and would have liked more. tl;dr: Installed and ran it standalone on the Steam Frame. I enjoyed the game, and had a good time with it from start to finish.
