Good idea, but somem issues.

I played this on the Oculus Go, and I haven't finished the game but I am quite a long way through. Overall I like the idea of the game and would recommend it to people who like 3D spacial rotation puzzles. I do have issues with it though which I will split in to The Good, The Bad and The Hints. The Good - I like the graphics (mostly) and the music and the idea of the puzzles. - I also like the story-ish part of it and the voice acting is decent. - The hint system is good, and in a few cases required to solve the puzzles. The Bad - The graphics seem to have been developed on a system with much lower resolution than the Go as there is chronic jagged edges that need both higher resolution and anti-aliasing. That said it doesn't impact on the gameplay at all. - The controls are a general issue. The boat moves well when you are going forwards but when stationary if you try and turn on the spot it gets odd. Go hard left and the wheel turns but the boat doesn't move. Go hard right and the wheel and boat turn left. - The distance to travel between puzzles is sometimes excessive, and in rare cases (level 25) you can't even see the glowing column to aim at as it is so far away. - Some puzzles are bad because there are too many unused pieces. Others don't look like what they are supposed to be and a few (level 25) are broken and you have to use the hint system to complete them. - The menu (which you can only access when not solving a puzzle) doesn't work properly. I can select to exit the game, but not to confirm I want to, for example. The Hints - There are 2 ways to manoeuvre the puzzle pieces. Either with the touchpad (which is quick, logical and hard to be precise) , or by holding the trigger and rotating the controller in 3D (which is slower, reverse-intuitive and more precise). - When you have very nearly solved the puzzle, if you wait and hear a noise like a squeaking floor board, the puzzle will do the final alignment and complete itself. - Notice the lightning!

Very soothing!!!

Great puzzle game!! Just touch your controller lightly to sail the boat. It is very sensative. Enjoy!
