The Amusement

Questo è uno di quei casi in cui servirebbe un voto medio. Bel gioco, con una splendida atmosfera, una bella storia, ma troppo breve. Prendendo il giusto tempo per seguire la storia, ho impiegato poco più di 3 ore per terminarlo. E' davvero un peccato perché la poca longevità è dovuta soprattutto alle piccolissime aree di gioco. Capisco che lo scopo era rendere possibile l'esplorazione a libera a piedi, ma ogni attrazione del parco è davvero solo una minuscola porzione di quello che ci si aspetterebbe. Poteva essere un giocone...

Ein VR-Game der besonderen Art. Sowas mag ich.

There is a spark of an idea here, but sadly, I find it lands totally flat. 30 minutes in and I just don't care about anything that's going on there so far. The only word that springs to mind is "lame." The voice acting is lame. The puzzles, if you want to call them that, are lame, the graphics are lame, the room scale thing barely works and I have a sizable play area. Maybe I didn't give it enough of a chance, but if I don't feel intrigued within the first 30 minutes, I'm out.

The game has potential, but in teleport mode the game is nearly unplayable and annoying, asking you to stand at a certain place and not detecting when you are. The game also lacks volume controlls. Because of these things i can not recommend it so far.

Sehr liebevoll gestaltetes Spiel, genau nach meinem Geschmack. Logisch zu lösende Rätsel und eine interessante Hintergrundgeschichte. Ich habe knapp 7 Stunden zum durchspielen gebraucht und die einzigen "Hänger" rührten von der Dunkelheit her. In machen Situationen habe ich schlicht nichts sehen können, trotz stark erhöhten Helligkeitseinstellungen. Einen technischen Hänger hatte ich im Mannschaftsraum, wenn man da beim Sprung an der falschen Stelle landet scheint das Spiel etwas zu laden, aber es passiert nichts mehr. Im dritten Anlauf habe ich den Winkel geändernt und dann lief es auch durch. Also trotzt kleiner Schwächen absolut empfehlenswert für alle, die lieber Rätsel lösen als zu schießen.

I want to like this game. I really do. It's clear that a lot of love went into it, the visuals are great, and the story, while a bit odd for the setting, is presented well. But the gameplay and the bugs let it down. There are only about 4 different types of puzzles, all of them too easy, and they repeat over and over throughout the game, with very little variation. It starts to feel like a chore, but not even a fulfilling chore, because there is so little challenge. Every time I got to a new challenge, I already knew it was going to be solution A, solution B, or solution C. The incessant use of controller vibration whenever the player touches anything is very distracting, and really needs to be toned down or removed. At one point in the game I was unable to put one of my tools into my inventory. When dropping it (which should return it to inventory), it just kept falling to the ground in slow motion. Knowing I needed this tool, I had to perform various acrobatics to keep holding it while climbing ladders and moving between rooms. Luckily when I took a break in the middle of the game and started it again later, the tool was in my inventory and didn't have to be lugged around anymore. If you're looking for a game that's lovely to look at, but presents little more than a couple of hours of rote puzzles, this may be for you. Otherwise I'd say take a pass.

A series of incredibly simple tasks. Nice artwork and decent (albeit short) story but the entire game could be completed by a 10 year old in a few hours.

There is so much to like about this game. I expands playfully on the 2x2m free roam game and has some wonderful largescale set pieces that wow and suprise especially given the spatial limits. There are a lot mechanics here to make this worth buying. If you are looking for a fun vr game that is a bit different give it a go. Inspite of the folliowing critisisms i still recommend The story is so-so. The 2d cut scenes are badly drawn and all the characters are unlikeable. There is a bug with the vignette setting. It says you can have it on or off but off is actually always on... and on is on when usuing moving platforms which was claustraphobic and imersion breaking. These are easy fixes so hopefully this gets fixed. There is no fixing the terrible character at the end or the half baked end moment. The guide voice is overly helpful especially later on spoiling so moments of discovery...

Tout ce que l'on aime en VR : beaux décors, ambiance prenante, situation unique. Le jeu peut aussi se pratiquer en "roomscale" pur ce qui ajoute à l'immersion. Une belle réussite.
