3/5

Incredibly short chapters/laggy..

played this on s7. Initially the sound effects were all off when I started the game. Turning on music, sfx, and ambience sound causes the game to lag immensely, it's not unplayable but still laggy enough to distract from the immersion. UPDATE: Turning ambience and controller off eliminates the lag. The music plays enough where the ambience isn't missed too much, great soundtrack though. the chapters play much quicker than lands end which is a similar game. the droid that follows you around tells you how to solve each puzzle. There really is no exploration, everything is spoonfed to you.... Each chapter is one basic puzzle all of which are incredibly easy, each level takes less than 10 minutes with only five levels. The game can be completed in less than an hour. I was hoping for more based on the trailer, the trailer basically shows you everything cool in the game. Not a lot of replayability either. Overall I'm disappointed in this game.

HELMET VIEW RUINS THE GAME

I bought a VR headset to be immersed in games. This is an otherwise great game but having a space helmet on takes away that immersion and at least 20 degrees of your FOV. If you add the option to remove I will rate 5 stars as of what I have played it's quite enjoyable.

Could be better with two simple changes

1) allow gaze selection to be sped up/overriden with an input event 2) allow direction/orientation changes without having to stand up or sit in a swivel chair. Sometimes I just want to lean back into a couch, or in bed, or sit cross-legged somewhere, and if I can't play a game like that I will often just move on to something else

Beautiful but bad

I was so excited for this game. But on the Oculus Go it was dropping frames and flickering a ton. I got sick to my stomach and could not finish. I wish I could get my money back.
