Spellbound

Well that was waaay to short for the asking price. It is maybe 15 Minutes long. I couldn´t believe it as i reached the end. Also what kind of fat wizard are you that you are exhausted and breathing after making 5 steps? That also interupts the narration if your come across one... The atmosphere is tight. Could be a great game sometime - but right now it is not- and also no development over the last 2 months i own this game... Ditch this and get the far better "Left Hand Path"

Spellbound is definitely one of the most charming VR games to date. Among the things it does well include: Music: The soundtrack is composed perfectly for a fantasy game and invokes a sense of whimsy Environment Design: The library, crypt, and forest are varied, detailed, and memorable. Graphics: Moonlight effects in the forest are jaw-dropping. Looks fantastic with supersampling Story/dialogue: The the story is fully voice acted, and definitely leaves you wanting more Locomotion: This flavor of arm-swing locomotion is tons of fun, and you can run in place for immersion Replayability: You'll want to replay it just because it's mechanics are fun, but there are also acheivements and easter eggs to unlock Which leads us to the bad: It's an early access game. You should expect all the little things that remind you that the title is still in development, but don't affect enjoyment or completion of the game at all. Things like stray text floating around after you die, or frustrations with the auto-aim on spells. All the sort of stuff you expect to smooth out as the next episodes and acts come out. Which leads to the final point: Spellbound is, for now, a prelude that creates a world you want to return to. Though it's fun to replay and show to friends, what you should really be excited for are the coming levels. You're buying into the oppurtunity to see those take shape.

Thanks for an interesting and unique experience! Some constructive feedback: 1) Most of the time, the fireballs didn't go where I intended. More often than not they would go downward into the ground instead of forward. I found aiming to be quite difficult. Maybe the alignment was off somehow? 2) The locomotion actually worked surprisingly well, but it was annoying when the avatar kept getting out of breath and stopping. It felt like I had to stop to catch my breath every few feet. 3) I couldn't figure out how to switch between spells. 4) Please let me skip the beginning voiced intro. It went on for way too long, and I'd rather be able to quickly read something like that instead of having to sit there staring at a bookshelf and listening to a voice slowly read it. Excited to see the next version!

I think that this game is pretty awesome. The spells look amazing. The way you move is pretty inventive and engaging - although I'm not sure for how long this kind of movement will be fun. The only major issue I have with it as it stands is the stamina. after 3-4 seconds of walking, I don't want to slow down. IF there was a sprint function, which I honestly wouldnt want anyway, then maybe i could understand it, but it is currently really annoying and gets in the way of exploring because i come to a halt every few seconds. This lack of stamina also results in hearing panting near constantly. I think that the panting also overrides other audio, because when there was narration, usually it cut out after a couple seconds. Again, I think that this was because of the panting audio replacing it, but I'm not 100% sure. Definitely one of the better VR games going around, even if it is short at the moment.

So cool and immersive. best movment so far and you have hands and body, the spells looks great too. the cons: Very short and early acess, the is only one chapter right now. The price is a little spicy, but its a potential game for those who like RPGs and immersive movment, I want this game to be supported to grow, but thats up to you. I had a lot of fun with this and for me worth it, first rpg I saw with this movment.

如果你对这个游戏感兴趣，不妨先看看我的视频(video): http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTcxNTcxNzIyOA==.html 目前游戏关卡太少了,但是这不妨碍这个游戏的优秀 缺点:画质太模糊了.抢先体验的关卡太少 优点:战斗方式和跑步 战斗方式很舒服很流畅,走路也是挥舞自己的手臂,不晕眩 在我看来,如果他完整版应该是个好游戏,希望快点出吧 我喜欢玩VR也喜欢探索最新的VR游戏，也会用心做好每一个视频 steam是一个要花钱的平台，所以我希望用我的视频让大家能更好的了解每一个游戏 最后，祝大家游戏越快哦~

Great Game, I love the movment controls. Looking forward to more releases.

cant write much of a review because the game is unplayable. After opening and reading initial storybook the game goes dark. I can hear the character speech but no graphics. Have tried reinstalling the game but to no effect. Cannot recommend until this issue is resolved

Paid $20 for an incomplete game that hasn't been updated in over a year. Oculus rift controls suck with this game. Doing a 360 with this game half the time the sensors don't register when you are face the opposite way so it needs a turning mechanism so we aren't wrapping ourselves in the cords. Hurry up and complete the other chapters. You had a year to complete. If you weren't planning on finishing anytime soon you should of dramatically lowered the price and made it clear to people you will not be done anytime soon.

I absolutely love the ideah for this game, and it has been done well so far. I do have a few complaints though. 1 I HATE the movement system. I would really like an option for trackpad movement or even teleportation. and second. The body being visible at the moment is very hard on the eyes. when im looking straight im clipping into the characters upper torso, and the arms get in the way so much and dont reach far enough that it really took me out of character. If there was a way to disable the body and change movement system im going to have to find a new job because this game will be all im playing!
