A fun and relaxing game for all ages

Hidden Memories consists of a set of puzzles where the player has to move time back and forth in order to change events and reach the end of the course. In this VR game, players can choose how they want to interact with the gameplay—play with an overview of the map, as if they were the god of the map, or have a more realistic and close-up view of the characters, as if they were walking the path alongside their two friends. This allows players to immerse themselves in the gameplay in the best way possible for a fantastic experience. In my opinion, I much preferred playing this game with an overview of the map, as this allowed me to quickly notice all the changes that happened to the map as I moved forward or backward in time. The puzzles are generally quite easy to complete. There is an increase in difficulty between levels, but nothing too difficult or impossible, which is why I believe this game is ideal for all ages. In addition to being a relaxing game that helps stimulate thinking, this game also offers an extra mini-game where the player has to find hidden items. For me, this was the highlight of the gameplay. I loved the way the items were hidden in the various maps; each map had a creative way of getting the player to acquire the various hidden items. As good as the game is, it also has some flaws. I didn't like that it wasn't explained to the player right from the start of the mini-game, which meant I had to repeat the first puzzles, as I wanted to collect all the hidden items. This is something that can be easily fixed. In addition, at some points in the gameplay, there are flashes of lights between levels and also in the cutscenes that are a little annoying. I would suggest reducing the brightness of these flashes or using a color that is less annoying to the player's eyes. Overall, for anyone thinking about buying the game, I 100% recommend it. This game is a very relaxing and fun immersive experience and I am loving it.

Fun, quirky Puzzle game

This game offered a very interesting puzzle-oriented game. The puzzles ranged from acessible to difficult, and introduced many different mechanics through the story to create challenging scenarios. Nonetheless, it never felt like it was overly complicated or poorly designed, but rather making you think about the possibilities and the need to interact with the core mechanics. Speaking of which - the core mechanics revolves around forwarding and pushing time backwards. It is an interesting way to promote the interaction with the game, and I feel like it creates an enthralling way to progress through the levels. Each of them told a different story within the memory book, that you could also exploit through a fun extra minigame within a game to find the many different items around the game. The acessibility, controls and the overall playability of the game was sound. You had total freedom to manipulate around the world, and alter your point of view and you had a choice between a full world view or a closer, personal view, depending on your choice of immersion. The only downside I could list as of right now would be the abundance of bright white flashes when you'd transition that unfortunately could strain your eyes a bit, but it is fixable by lowering the brightness - or timing these and closing your eyes. Overall, a solid, great game, at a very affordable price that can give you a few hours of solid entertainment - suitable for all ages!

Magical and Immersive

Absolutely beautiful mixed reality experience — the fog, lighting, and passthrough blend feel magical. Stunning visuals, music, and animations throughout. The puzzles are engaging and rewarding, specially collecting items, with a great sense of discovery. The hand tracking takes a bit of learning, but it’s great to see titles exploring this. The attention to detail and overall polish make it truly impressive.

Best emotional beautiful game ever

Disregard the negative reviews. The art style and mechanics is pretty unique with pause, forward and rewind to solve puzzles. There is no voice acting so you have to figure out what’s going on through a lot of observation. It is cartoon like but it works well for the genre of storytelling and puzzles. Great job developers appreciate how you able to pull out tiny objects and paste into the comic books Definítely recommend

Cool concept with a lot of concessions

The very fact that this is available on the Quest 2 suggests that concessions were made. The resolution is way too low. Regarding the foviated rendering, the foviated area has less clarity than the eyeline resolution in Red Matter. The graphics are fine, but it's clear that something more could have been done after seeing Ghost Town in action. The concept is actually really cool. It wouldn't keep me busy all day, but it's inventive and neat in the same way that A Fisherman's Tale is, if only less cerebral. I'm not sure if it gets more complex. I hope so, but at the onset it's pretty easy. There's an issue where the hands snap onto any object you grab, but the action duplicates your hands in VR, so any time you're holding a book - for instance - there are 4 hands in view. It's janky and weird. Cool game, cool concept, and the animation is pretty decent. The plot is a little undefined. Even on the download page it's a single line of words that don't really add up to much of a story. It's cool, but it needs work.
