This is a superior creepy mansion game. I've played a few of these, and this is my favourite so far. It didn't get off to the best start with the weirdly grey visuals, but that was a quick fix in the graphics menu - brightness 100% gamma 25%. The lack of IK is only a problem at first - once you realize it's not estimating the orientation of your arms you just don't bend your wrists much. I completed it in one session of about 2 hours and 10 minutes. I was not bored, as the mansion is suitably creepy, and I felt compelled to keep going and find a way out before I ran out of torch batteries - this was a really good mechanic IMO. I was only stuck for a few minutes, and the maps did help me towards the end of the game - but almost all the way through I was just hunting through the rooms collecting the things I needed to progress the story, not having to concentrate too hard or solve puzzles. It's not an action game, as clearly stated on the store page, so don't expect to shoot zombies, but there are enough jump scares here to keep you on edge, without getting too scary. Here's a video of the first 8 minutes, so it's spoiler free: https://youtu.be/HKKlDyEkr8k
Muy buena ambientación, más misterioso que terrorífico (sustos hay). Se agradecería subtítulos (y doblaje) a otros idiomas.

Short but not sweet, a couple of jump scares and a lot of confusion. Near the end, got a bug where I would have to pause or use an item to get my hand back. Game was just a walking item retrieving simulator that was pretty low quality.
Me gusta el género de terror, no lo voy a negar. Aunque desde que cambié mis viejas Rift cv1 por las Rift S... la cosa empeoró (ya se sabe, los "negrises"). Y sí, prefiero las Rift S por su nitidez en el 80-90% de los juegos/experiencias pero en los de terror... vaya! Hasta ahora he jugado/testeado varias experiencias y juegos de terror de diferente índole: Alien Isolation, Affected The Manor, Dark Days, Face your fears, Kobold 1, Layers of Fear VR, Paranormal Activity - The Lost Soul, The Elevator Ritual, Wilson's Heart y otras de cuyo nombre prefiero no acordarme. Algunas pocas las he acabado y otras no, por diferentes motivos. Conociendo a Eneko (del mundo simracing), sabiendo lo puntilloso y delicado que es, sabiendo que si se mete con algo no lo suelta (ya vemos que han sido 3 años) y que da siempre lo mejor de sí, me decidí a comprar el juego. Aquí va mi valoración a la inversa; primero lo malo (probado con unas Oculus Rift S): Es una aventura un poco plana, sin puzzles complicados ni nada enrevesado de verdad. Vas casi sobre raíles, paso a paso hasta que acabas la historia (ojo! muchos otros juegos de terror son así). Las mecánicas necesitan un buen repaso, parece como si al intentar agarrar objetos llevaras unos guantes de boxeo. No es muy importante porque no necesitas coger objetos salvo los específicos y esos se cogen fácil... pero a la hora de abrir gavetas (cajones) y, sobretodo, puertas... uff, puedes estar un buen rato para conseguirlo. También hay que decir que muchas otras aventuras terroríficas adolecen de cosas similares, como el tosco movimiento en Paranormal Activity o los microsaltos en Layers of Fear. Los botones para coger o activar cosas tampoco me parecen bien elegidos. Y el inventario... un poco farragoso a veces cuando quieres salir de él (dejar el botón pulsado). Y el sistema de pilas/linterna, a estilo Paranormal Activity, me parece que sobra en ambos juegos. Y la duración, yo que suelo alargar mucho los juegos VR porque me encanta quedarme mirando los objetos o el paisaje sin hacer nada... pues me pareció corta para el precio que tiene. Ciertamente, creo que un precio de entre 12 y 15 euros hubiera estado más que bien (comparándolo con otros juegos). Por el lado positivo, el apartado sonoro me gustó bastante. También los gráficos, modelados y texturas. Aunque con un tono muy oscuro (naturalmente). A pesar de jugarlo en unas Rift S, no me parecieron unos tonos tan grises como en Layers of Fear, por ejemplo. Aunque la aventura es demasiado "plana", fue un placer recorrer la casa, investigar, mirar, subir, bajar... casi relajante si no es por los sustos que te llevas de vez en cuando (no demasiados... no me gusta que abusen de los sustos gratuitos -scary jumps-). Pero son sustos justificados y medidos. Mezclar dos épocas/universos en una sola aventura (sorry por el pequeño spoiler) también es una buena idea. Y lo de los mapas en papel en la mano, una delicia. A pesar de que mi nivel de inglés no es muy alto, no me resultó un problema no tener subtítulos. Pienso que no hacen falta. Eso sí, se podrían meter voces en español muy fácilmente (son pocas). Conclusión: desde un punto de vista Indie, buen juego si te gusta la temática, el terror, la atmósfera, algunos sustos. Pero con un precio un poco alto para lo que es.
Nice game but quite short It's a narrative game with some terror and puzzles Edit: After trying Wraith: The Oblivion afterlife, it has made me realize how well done Dreamback was, dreamback was all about emotions and inmersion, Wraith tries something similar, is technically well done, but it's just boring.
Impressions Video with Commentary // Oculus Rift S // RTX 2070 Super: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AmgEJiLHd4 My Quick Thoughts: Great atmosphere, graphics, locations and a few jump scares here and there, but gameplay wise its very slow paced. At times you feel like you are going round in circles and I would suggest to the devs they make the levels a bit more busy and interesting with ghostly activities.
Creepy with good atmosphere and few jumpscares. Recommended for any VR fan who likes story based immersive experiences.

I like the huge spooky manor, the graphics, the light effects, the volumetric effects, the good animations of the ghosts, the soundtrack, the very good 3D audio. In terms of visuals and sound it's very good, especially with next-gen Reverb G2 display. Nevertheless custom controls are very very ugly. You have to activate movement by pressing the left button; then you can walk by tilting your wrist in the forth or back direction! The same for turning with the right controller: press the right button and tilt the wrist left and right! Very uncomfortable! I managed to modify the bindings in order to use the left stick to walk and the right stick to turn while keeping the grip buttons pressed. I shared my bindings with the community. However you can save just one time; no way to overwrite or change save slot. So I had to complete the game in only one session! No help from developers. Obviously I wasn't expecting instant solution and personal assistance. The save system issue was reported one year ago by other users. No solution from developers so far! This is not the only reason why I put thumb down. Interactivity is very low. You can grab only few items useful to progress; the handle/grab mechanics are heavily flawed for any other item. Your virtual hands cannot touch anything, they go through furnitures, objects, doors, etc. Or, on the contrary, you are artificially moved away when you go too close to furnitures. This is immersion killing in VR. Decor of the house is very repetitive, flat, anonymous, with the exception of a few sculptures. This kills the otherwise good design of the manor and the otherwise good gothic atmosphere. Story is very weak and ending is disappointing. It's not scary, just a couple of good jump scares. A wasted opportunity, the developers didn't put much passion and dedication into it, except in the very good visual and sound quality. It could be a good VR demo for free or at so far lower price.
