Directionless is an experimental Virtual Reality horror game. It tries out a variety of ways of using Virtual Reality to unnerve and disorient the player, with carefully crafted audio working with an interactive environment to pull you into a nightmarish world where you can't trust anything.

Es ist okay für nen Euro. Wirklich gruselig ist das ganze nicht, kann man aber mal gemacht haben. Kriegt von mir den Daumen rauf, da ich finde der Preis ist fair (gerade für einen VR Titel).
I am still not desensitized to VR horror. For a while, I could never get through the first section of the game because the idea of being alone in a small cabin with big windows in the woods at night was creepy enough. (Especially after watching the movie Hush...) But once I forced my way through that opening part of this minigame (or mostly non-interactive VR short), it really lost its horror edge and became just a bunch of weird colors and shapes and unnecessary changes in perspective. A pointless gimmick and waste of time.
Would get directionless again/10 But really though this is an audiovisual masterpeice that really makes you feel directionless and dont get me started on the story which implies that vertigo is just a game within the directionless world which also implies that blueshift is also just a game in the directionless universe. In terms of gameplay it may at first seem shallow but look closer and you will find that directionless is actually a deeply strategic speedrunning game. For example if you going the pillow around you will be lifted from the house instead of going grocery shopping which saves you 5 minutes. It was that my fellow reveiwers only played the game once and missed out on all its depth and simply derided it as "an experience" where all you do is stand in place and watch things happen for ten minutes.
For 99 cents, this wild ride is well worth the price of admission. It's not really a horror game. It's trippy. Very trippy. It's an experiment that works very well and needs to be explored further. I would like an experience like this to last much longer.
I really enjoyed playing this game. I had my sister play it and she had to take of the headset because she got so freaked out.
One and done. Interesting concept, but in the end, not much to do. Good experience for vivers who can't afford games yet.
(English) Interesting game! (Русский) Интересная игра советую!
Very short, not very creepy, but another tech demo. For $.99, it was worth the effort on the developer.
Good way to mess with your inner ear. Short experience - great demo fodder for the adventurous.
