The Unwelcomed

Super Spiel, genau solche Spiele braucht VR Die Hände sollten aber noch verbessert werden auch wäre es mir persönlich lieber Objekte mit dem Trigger aufzunehmen Ansonsten kann ich das Spiel jedem empfehlen der auf Erkundung und Rätsel steht.

Very hard to get past some rooms in this game. Many frustrating times but if you have a friend to trade back and forth with, you could probably complete the whole game in just a few hours. Amazing puzzles.

4/10 This game is likable in certain regards. I like the puzzles and I enjoyed the atmosphere. However, should not have been released without a bughunt. 1) objects do not interact together as planned. I spent ages lighting one candle with another, or setting fire to boxes or various other tasks required to progress. Because of this it is easy to think "Oh, I can't light candles" and dismiss - then return to discover that this is required to progress only after looking at a walkthrough. 2) Likewise, one puzzle became impossible because I had moved all of the paper clues together at the beginning, was stuck for an hour on this, then only realised I had blocked myself by moving the clues, since the position of the clues was the answer to the puzzle. Only discovered this from looking at a walkthrough. This approach to a puzzle game makes players distrust the developers and look at walkthroughs every time they get stuck. Poor.

I don't have VR so I can only talk about the non-VR version of The Unwelcomed. It's also worth noting that this game wasn't originally designed for non-VR play, so my experience may differ drastically from those with VR. I thought this game was a lot of fun. There isn't really anything in terms of a plot or story. You just enter a room and have to solve puzzles to get back out. In my opinion the lack of story or overarching purpose for the player character doesn't necessarily hurt the experience too much. This is an "Escape the Room" game about solving puzzles. Most of the puzzles are pretty clever and creative. Some could use a little work, but more on that in a bit. I have run into several bugs during my playtime (mostly due to the game not being originally designed for non-VR), but the developer has been very responsive to my reports. In fact (and full disclosure here), I have been in active discussion with the developer working on fixing as many bugs/issues as possible. Some of them have already been fixed since my first playthrough, and more fixes are on the way. About the puzzles. I'd say they're not too hard and not too easy overall. In other words, the challenge was such that once a solution was found I had a feeling of satisfaction and not as though I was wasting my time... for the most part. As mentioned earlier, some of the puzzle elements could use a bit of tuning. One room in particular gave me more trouble than I think it should have (and not because it was hard, but because of other things). As with the bugs, the developer is also open to my thoughts and suggestions regarding the puzzles and even mentioned the possibility of completely reworking that troublesome room I just mentioned. That all being said, even in its current state I'd still recommend giving it a try. At time of writing, the normal price of the game is $15, but that's aimed toward the VR experience. Make sure you try the free demo, and I'd recommend waiting for a sale price if you plan to play it without VR. That's only because the game is rather short. The Unwelcomed is kinda like sex with me; it's great but it's over pretty quick.

I played the kb/m version, and it doesn't seem like it was designed for that at all. The game is incredibly buggy with weird physics. Sometimes key elements of a puzzle just wouldn't work, or a key object would clip through a wall and be lost, forcing you to restart. Speaking of restarts, the game features absolutely no save system at all, so you just track your progress by memory/steam achievements. This means that if you have to leave in the middle of a puzzle, you're going to have to start it all over again when you come back. It also means, possibly more importantly, that the game doesn't really reward your progress in any way - there isn't any mystery reveal or even little animation at the end. When you finish the last puzzle, you get your last steam achievement and alt+f4 out (because there doesn't seem to be any sort of menu). It's a shame because the puzzle designs and atmosphere are pretty good. I also feel like if it all worked properly there's almost enough here to justify this price tag. Maybe it's better in VR.

This is a good puzzle game. Some solutions to the puzzles are hard to find out which is good for this type of puzzle game. It can be frustrating at some points! The graphics are good but the physics engine is not top notch which can remove some of the realism the game has to offer. It's a good overall puzzle/room escape with a creepy feel.

The Unwelcomed ist ein schon anspruchsvolles Escaperoomspiel. Wenn man der englischen Sprache in Wort und Schrift fähig ist, macht das mysteriöse Herrenhaus mit seinen verschiedenen Räumen bestimmt höllisch Spaß. Wer nur rudimentäre Englischkenntisse hat, sollte die Finger von diesem Spiel lassen, leider. Die Grafik im Spiel ist sehr realisitisch und fängt die gruselige Atmosphäre in dem leeren(?) Haus gut ein. Man hat Hände anstelle der Controller und kann Dinge greifen und benutzen. Freie Bewegung und Teleport und andere Einstellungen stehen vorbildlich im Menu auch während des Spiels zur Verfühgung. Würde es z.b. mehrsprachige Untertitel geben, wäre es ein Toptitel. (Von Syncronisation träum ich nicht mal ...) Für alle die gut im Englischen sind und etwas anspruchvollere Escaperoomspiele mögen, eine Empfehlung. http://store.steampowered.com/curator/32170554/

I purchased this game back in Early access, and had a review up for it. Most Of my complaints have been addressed. So starting over! The Good: +Good visuals and atmosphere, I often find myself so caught up in the puzzles I will legitimately forget that the objects I see aren't real. Found myself many times trying to steady myself against a desk or wall to almost catastrophic results. +Good sound design. +A good options menu that gives many choices on how to interact and move through the game. +Wonderful puzzles. The Bad: -Still have terrible hand models, though they did finally add grabbing motions to them. -Still some bugs that can break a room, such as strange collision boxes, or needed items falling through other items. Overall, if you are a fan of escape room games in VR Grab this, it's well worth the money, as It has a variety of room types!

Plusieurs pièces et plusieurs heures de jeu. Le niveau de difficulté varie d'une pièce à l'autre, certaines sont relativement faciles, d'autres beaucoup moins. Dans mon top 5 des jeux d'évasion.

Ein wirklich schönes Room Escape Spiel. Grafisch sehr schön gehalten. Ein Rätsel Spiel was nicht nach 5 Minuten endet, ganz im gegenteil wir haben hier einige Räume zu erkunden und zu erforschen. Englische Sprachkenntnisse sollten vorhanden sein. Fortbewegen kann man sich via Porten oder aber auch free Locomotion. Die Rätsel sind nicht zu leicht, man muss schon gut Überlegen. Hin und wieder haut das mit dem Greifen nicht ganz so hin aber da kann man (ich) drüber hinweg sehen. Was mich stört, ist wenn man zu nah an die Wand kommt, das der Bildschirm schwarz wird.
