Shocking!!!I got the bundle including the first dead secret. Dead scret worked on VR, circle didn.t. It loads me into a lift and I'm stuck in a wall, can't move. I have tried resetting my set up, all drivers/updates, nothing. DON'T BOTHER BUYING DEAD SECRET CIRCLE AS IT IS GLITCHY AND IN MY CASE THE GAME WOULDN'T EVEN START, THEY WON'T REFUND.
If you're looking to play this with a Quest 2 in VR you are better to get this title outside of Steam. The SteamVR version has issues. The first game was a great VR mystery with a solid story and a little bit of horror. Plus I always love games with multiple endings. Makes you feel your choices have some impact. This one was definitely a step up besides the incredibly slow movement. However the SteamVR version is broken, at least playing with a Quest 2. I didn't even realise until over 6 hours in that my ideofocul goggles were not showing me what they were supposed to. The sound and visuals change just like the first game but you don't see the hidden visuals. Somehow I managed up until close to the end without all the extra fun stuff I should have been seeing. I just assumed at some point I would need the goggles and often spent the time to put them on, which was annoying on Quest 2 because it required going into the inventory each time. Finally I reached a point where to progress further in VR was not possible. I had to load up the game without VR, do the puzzle, and then go back to VR. And in that same area there was another puzzle that to solve you need to have the ideofocul goggles working. Watched a YouTube video for the answer. All that aside I did enjoy the VR experience. I just feel I missed out on a lot without the goggles working properly. I did get it on a great sale so it was definitely worth the price.
Don't get me wrong, I loved the first hour that the game let me get through, but then I encountered a game breaking glitch that prevented me from going forward. The pacing was decent, and I liked the first game too. But....if you're going to put out a game, don't leave it so damn broken. Especially when you're not Bethesda, because at least bugs fit their track record. I'm incredibly disappointed in how broken the game is.
I will say first, I really hope they make a third. I enjoyed the first Dead Secret, and this was a step up. It lasted a little longer than the first, the first took me 2 days to complete and this one three days. I liked that you interacted with other people than just wandering around by yourself. Questioning people was fun, I just wish you had more options to choose what to say or ask. Certainly creepier than the first, and more jump scares and having to run and hide from the bad guy, but without over doing it. Some questions that were brought up in the game were left unsolved, so that was a bummer but didn't ruin the game by any means. Really, really enjoyed it and I hope they keep making more!
+good atmosphere and story -bugs and crashes -slow walking
Better than the first one. Good story flow with out too much excessive reading.
liked the story line, disliked wasd, and mouse control to move around/ view items.
An FPP thriller set in 1970s Chicago, in a bleak tenement building in winter, with a murder-mystery investigation and optional VR mode — that’s the perfect game for me.
If you enjoyed the original Dead Secret, you'll enjoy Dead Secret Circle! Returning characters, unsettling setting, more fleshed out story aspects, it's more of what you love!
La suite de Dead Secret, fait bien flipper dont l'ambiance est prenante. Le point positif c'est que j'ai pu reussir a finir cette suite hors que dans le premier, je n'ai pas su le finir a cause du coffre buger. Il a quelque bug dont le déplacement du personnage se block a chaque fois et les son du jeu se coupent pendant un moment, qui du coup faudra redémarrer le jeu pour pouvoir avancer. Dommage qu'il n'est pas en français, car la fin du jeu je ne l'ai pas compris du tout X). Je vous le conseil pour celles et ceux qui veulent le découvrir ;).
