The Gallery - Episode 1: Call of the Starseed

Short but a great introduction into VR.

Recommended on sale only. Got the game for a couple bucks, and it's definitely worth that. But completed it in under 1.5 hours. 81 minutes to be exact. And that was with watching the credits for 3-5 minutes to see if there was anything after (nope). Nothing hard about the game at all. It's mostly a walking (standing) simulator with a few things to pick up and put together. Hoping for a little more from Episode 2... Wouldnt say this is worth $15. Not in 2022.

(Very) short but awesome game, I finished it in 115min where roughly 30minutes is just listening to the story of the game. (which is a bit weird and even after finishing not very clear either) It's really amazing what they did here, especially if you keep the age of the game into account. There is no locomotion, just blinking. The blinking has been done very well but i'm not used to playing like this so it was a lot of getting used to. mechanics felt really sollid and the graphics where very good! I bought the bundle and I can't wait to play the second part!

An early VR game that is best to avoid, teleport controls were awkward and the lack of any turn options at all make this feel really dated. The graphics are ok for the time but are not much to look at by today's standards. The story was nonsense and I couldn't get into it. Only like 2 actual puzzles in the game 1 in the beginning and 1 at the end the latter which was completely annoying and i just looked up on youtube how to beat that one as I kind of just wanted to finish this as quickly as possible. Game was disorienting and it's possible to have some mild motion sickness if you are sensitive to that kind of thing towards the end.

This was probably good when it came out, but I went back to it recently getting back into VR and it's extremely blurry. Movement is not particularly intuitive and I often got stuck in a corner.

This game plays like a VR version of the point and click adventure games. You go around interacting with the environment and finding the way to solve simple puzzles to be able to continue. Personally, I found the very first puzzle to be the least obvious one. It was smooth sailing afterwards, but I was about to give up on the game altogether. I'm glad I didn't, because the story is compelling and well exposed. There are also times in which an annoying NPC keeps talking, trying to pressure the player to move forward, while you are trying to listen to a cassette. Small issues aside, this is a very interesting short adventure that is well worth experiencing.

My mind was blown by that one composer from Skyrim and Freddie Fish, if I ever get abducted, It would be honoured with your music, sir

Do not buy this garbage. Blink locomotion is attrocious. Gameplay nearly non-existent. Graphics constantly glitch or are illegible. Pretentious storyline that cliffhangs you and has zero interaction with large periods of waiting. The trailer shows the game in a far better light than you'll experience it. Watch the trailer once and realize you had a superior experience to those who played it.

Playing this for the first time in 2023. This is an interesting look back to the start of modern VR and that is the main reason to pick this up today IMO The game itself is very short and ends before it really gets going. The movement is teleport only and is awkward by todays standards. Compared to a modern game this feels dated. I guess that shows how far we have come.

Worst controls ever. so incredibly limiting. I've tried this game 3 separate times over the last few years and its been too bad to even get passed an hour.
