It's one of the better narrative experiences I've had in VR, with excellent voice work and a story that raises some interesting ethical questions without descending into ham fisted moralising. It's a shame that the controls are flat out awful, with a point and click style interface that desn't feel designed for VR, and the worst teleportation system I have ever experienced. It's not enough to render the game unplayable, but it does make the better aspects of the game something of a chore to get through.It's also pretty short. I finished it in around three hours, although it does have some alternate endings and I'm sure I missed a few little ancilliary stories and easter eggs along the way. I bought it on sale and I'm happy with it for what I paid, but I think the full price is a little on the steep side. But if you finished A Chair in a Room and The Gallery and are looking for something more at the narrative adventure end of the scale than horror, You could certainly do far worse than this. I'm hoping for a sequel that sorts those horrible controls, but for now, this is pretty good if you're willing to overlook the flaws.. I really enjoyed this game - great visuals and storyline. Spent 6 quality hours figuring out the puzzles and dilemmas. It's quite the cerebral adventure.... Good visuals, good voice acting (in French i recognised Patrick Borg, the french voice of Adult Goku !)VR : since you are supposed to play in front of your keyboard, you cannot look behind you !Wanna vomit ? play in VR ^^ using keys to rotate is HORRIBLE ! (unless you close your eyes). i am suprised by the negative review with performance issues i am experiencing none. The assembly is what i call an atmospheric game. Sure some of the puzzles are simple, but they are well done and unique. Where this game shines is in its story and asthetics and holds up as a tripple A game.i wonder if it is an oculus thing with peoples experience with performance or maybe under speced pc's. I feel really sorry to write this. But the game is uplayable if you are using HTC VIVE. It has loads of bugs, and has no support of vive controllers. How can I get the refund?. The controls are wonky and the motion controller support is very poorly implemented, this is still a seated frustrating experience which I don't recommend until they fix this. You can't really grab an object (like a phone for instance) but rather point and click at an object, it basically feels like playing a monitor game in VR.. A fun, low-key, story-driven game that makes a good use of the VR medium. The pace is a little slow, but the world feels really big and immersive, the puzzles are fun, and the game pushes you to make some ethical judgments that had me a little teary-eyed in my headset. By the end, it's hard not to get sucked in. There are multiple endings, and you get to compare your choices and game stats against those made by other players. The one real con for me was that the controls (playing on the HTC Vive with controllers) were a little funky and hard to get the hang of whenever I hopped back into the game after a long break, but I wouldn't say this was a big detractor from the game overall. If you're looking for a good story-driven VR game, this is worth a look.. I just finished a play through of this this morning. Took me about 3.6hours to complete according to Steam. It's not bad, it's not amazing. A short adventure played through two perspectives, no real fail states. Just walking around clicking on things to progress the narrative.. I enjoyed this game. Good mix of narrative story and puzzler. Just wish it was longer. Movement style is teleportation only when I played it last (Vive with wands). I believe it also accepts controller input.. THE GRAPHIC WAS AMAZING AS WELL AS THE STORY BEHIND IT I WOULD SO RECOMMAND THIS GAME TO MY FRIEND THEIR ALOT NEEDD TO BE UNDERSTOOD THE CAUSE OF WHY THESE TWO PEOPLE ARE AT THID LOCATION AND WHY YOU MADE THE CHOICES YOU DID I GIVE IT A THUMBS UP IF THEIR IS A SEQUAL I WOULD PURCHASE IT
