Orb Labs, Inc.

The game looks really it's a relatively original idea (from what I know). However, the game is not difficult, but tedious. You cana try it for yourself, since this is a personal thing, but I do not recommend it.

Exceeded expectations :)

It's a lot of fun, feels pretty polished, and makes you think. Throwing is, obviously a big piece of it. I can see why some say the throwing is "off" but I can tell you by flubs were my own. I think the throwing is fine. I'm not through the story yet entirely but if it can be expanded with new challenges/puzzles/story/content it might compete a bit with Portal. I use a vive and had zero sickness. Again it's fun and creative. Definitely recommend.

This game is very exciting! Avoiding lasers can really get the blood pumping!! The maps are very cool, and the graphics are amazing. Very immersive game(be careful not to run into your wall to escape lasers like i did cus it hurts! Haha.) Throwing the orbs is a great idea because it makes it more challenging. This game will provide hours of enjoyment to your life! I thought it was going to be Budget Cuts redesigned, but its not even close. Not sure how many levels there are yet but so far it has been well worth the money! And no bugs or crashes which I cant say for many other games Ive played in VR. You will not regret this purchase!!!

It's throwing-based puzzle with stealth elements and extremely frustrating enemies. I liked it at first but with every new level it was becoming increasingly unfair to the point where I had to stop playing it at the final room. I enjoy throwing in VR as it is one of the gameplay mechanics that are unique to this media. And it's pretty good and challenging in Orb Labs with no assist to projectile speed, as far as I can tell. But the game requires way too much precision with far away throws at later stages and punishes you with instant death even on small mistakes. Add to this big open rooms where sometimes you can't even see where all the enemy turrets are located(since everytime you try to look around the corner you get killed) and the result is extremely frustrating 'trial and error' core gameplay. Final room was the worst example of that: I died few dozen times before giving up without exploring even a half of it. Visuals are decent and lighting is pretty good, but the levels themselves look all the same with a lot of boring corridors with nothing but crates, lockers and pits. [strike]Also there is a consistent visual bug that makes parts of the level look pitch black until you get close to them.[/strike] The bug was fixed

Hi folks. I think Orb Labs Inc. is an awesome game. Navigating and activating the orbs through throwing them is fun and a cool idea. Also, the puzzles to solve are nice balanced between figuring out a (more or less complex) plan how to pass situations and the skills necessary to fulfill your ideas. Beside the cool gameplay there are also funny elements in story and items to collect. I'd say that this is a great game for everyone who likes puzzles games.

Awesome action-puzzle game! Orb Labs, Inc. is a fresh breeze in the world of VR games. It can be best described as (action-)puzzle and with that definitely reminds me of "Portal" in some moments. The main mechanics of this game is throwing orbs. It is easy at first if you accept a certain variance of your target position. The fun challenge is to master this throwing technique, becoming faster and more precise, which will help you beat later levels, especially on higher difficulties. Later in the game you really feel like some kind of orb-ninja :) Another great plus of this mechanics is the immersion. You really feel like getting the hands on a new technology. Teleporting becomes reasonable (to some extend), unlike traditional "point-and-click"-navigation. And each new orb (cover, decoy, ...) adds to this experience. Speaking of which, using the different types of orbs to get around the puzzle rooms requires good thinking and even action-packed evasion moves. You teleport, hear the alarm, crawl behind a box, grab the decoy orb,... But there is always a multitude of possible solutions and an extra challenge is to get to the floors with as few orbs as possible. Due to fairly distributed checkpoints ("reconstruction machines") the frustration is reasonably low (most of the time ;)) and you are always eager to try "just one more time". You wouldn't expect a deep story in that kind of game, but infiltrating an underground lab to uncover the shady experiments of a company is enough to get me going. Plus, there is even more backstory to discover, if you have the patience to read each and every hint on your way down ;) After the story mode, you can try a higher difficulty, explore the floors for all the collectables and then... try the challenge mode, my personal highlight! Beating each level as fast as you can with only a few orbs is so thrilling and... well, challenging... I love it! Come, beat my WR :) Polished gameplay, nice graphics, innovative ideas... and it's only a few dollars! Definitely check it out!

Cleveres Puzzlespiel, was die 7€ auf jeden Fall wert sind.

Took me 6 hours to complete the campaign, which is great, as so many indie vr games don't even have a campaign. Stealth gameplay is good fun, and it's quite a physical game, lots of throwing and ducking. Starts out simple but the levels become much harder and you get different kinds of orbs to keep things fresh. Certainly worth the price so give it a try!

A surprisingly challenging and fun puzzle VR game. Some levels are extremely hard and require some fast movements and clever ideas to beat them, having to use your whole body to avoid the lasers. Highly recommended :), unexpectedly became one of my favourite VR games. As per negative aspects, I wish there was a individual level selection inside a save file, so I can go back and collect all remaining orbs and logs, so I don't have to repeat the entire game for a couple elements.
