Groundhog Day: Like Father Like Son

日本語対応というから買ってみたが、ただの機械翻訳であまりに酷い。 FPSとかアクションとか他に売りがあるゲームで機械翻訳ってのならまぁ我慢もできるけど、ストーリーとか会話が重要なゲームで機械翻訳をそのままぶっこんでいるだけなので、意味も伝わらんし雰囲気もぶち壊しだし、これで日本語対応とか詐欺と言っていいレベル。

Played on a Oculus Quest 2 via Link. Okay, lets get the bad out of the way. First, there is a spray paint mini-game. Some say you must do it three times to beat it which was my experience also. So just jack it up the first two days you encounter it and try your best the third day. You've been warned! I spent 1.5 hrs doing that in total. Next, the main character is unjustifiably mad at his Dad. It is a bit off-putting in the beginning but still an engaging story. Finally, if I screwed up a day, I normally kept going and didnt replay the scene. This is required a lot of the time. I had no issues with this but some people kept redoing scenes b/c they failed and then couldn't get it right. Well, you have to fail sometimes. It's Groundhog Day. The Pros: It's fun. And just the right amount of challenge. I liked the voice acting and the cut scenes. I also prefer teleportation movement which this has, and it helps keep you focused on what needs to be accomplished. Kind of surprised it doesn't have more reviews. But then again, it is based off a 30-year old movie.

[h1]Love it, such a charming and endearing game and story[/h1] At first you'll hate it, you're such an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ about everything and everyone but just like the movie everything starts to change until you just start to aim for that one perfect day. There's really no shortage of nice things I can say about the story, it's such a heartwarming tale that you really just need to experience it. Especially if you have, or will have, a family of your own. For the gameplay, you move by teleportation to certain spots. I played with Index Knuckles which are supported but holding things can be janky as the positioning you hold them by default can be an issue. You can't skip dialogues till later so some you will hear often and they can be somewhat long. The minigames fit the game and they're fun and varied. I did have issues with a couple of them though, the first is the spray paint game, I have 4 base stations to help prevent issues in my play area but the can would randomly jump yet basically guaranteed every attempt and ruined most attempts at clearing it. The second is one other mention, the dance minigame. You have to just play until you get a feel for how you make, at least enough, motions to clear it. I found that doing the motion then shaking my hands seemed to help on some of them. Make sure you use big motions as it detects them better than. Definitely a must-play game for VR players and a staple for your library!

I accidentally left the game open for 18 hours

I've played this game using Oculus Quest 2 over Virtual Desktop. As a fan of the movie, I would recommend this game to other fans. It follows a similar plotline as the film, where you have to repeat the same day over and over again until you get it just right. Fortunately, as the days go on, you receive critical hints on how to do better the next day. The game itself is ok, you progress mostly by completing minigames which can be a bit hit or miss. Think Job Simulator with a Punxsutawney twist. If you haven't seen the movie, I'd you recommend you go watch it first. If you liked it, then get this game. If not, I would give it a miss.

Great game in spirit of old adventure games like Lucas Arts series/Siera/Grim Fandango. The game is witty, wholesome, and minigames are cool.

It's a very well-made and entertaining game but the controls are genuinely ATROCIOUS, I spent my first 10 minutes in the game trying to turn off snap turning (which I never managed to do), and then I had to manually create my own custom control bindings to actually allow me to grab objects with the grip. If you can stomach floating hands that are half a metre away from your actual hands, give it a go, you'll love it, but if you can't then this will be a very frustrating game.

underrated

Extraordinarily heartwarming, this game will give you a wonderful experience for a few hours. This is the closest you'll ever get to living a real life time loop situation and it's utterly brilliant. The fun story, the cute character design, the uplifting music, everything comes together for an incredibly wholesome experience definitely worth playing for anyone that loves the original film. This made me smile and will go down as one of my favourite VR games.

Another excellent puzzle like game with a great plot. Especially if you've seen and enjoyed the film.
