Virush

This is a refreshing change from all the other clone VR games being released daily. It's simple and intuitive to control, uses 360 room scale very nicely, imagine playing snake inside of an Omni theater but also include the bottom half of your view, a full 360 dome...now that doesn't sound very cool but you know in VR, simple sounding things are more impressive in VR. The graphics are clean and slick, the audio is very, very well done, a lot like Racket NX (I'm playing with the deluxe audio head strap), and the gameplay is easy to pick up but challenging as you progress. If you enjoyed the arcade ship shooter in The Lab, you're gonna really like this game, it's very much taking a classic arcade title/genre and bringing it to the present through VR - not a remake but a re-imagining of what made 80's arcade games so much fun to come back to.

This game is absolutely great because it's deceptively simple...and as such becomes so addictive. It's basically a MUST HAVE game to get introduced to the possibilities of VR. It's delicately designed even though minimalistic. And the music evolves in complexity as you pass levels in the game. I love the fact that it really takes advantage of the entire 360 degree around you yet you never have to worry about the "real space" around you because you only have to rotate on your center and move your head. It's kind of space invaders meets space command + super cool music And as a non gamer by jumping in early I got to be the high score on one of the modes you can unlock by reaching thersholds in the game ;0)

[u]I played this game on the Oculus Rift with Touch controllers without any problems [/u]. The game seems very simple from the video gamplay on the store page. And the tutorial explains the very basics so you'll know what to do at the start. But once the bosses come into play, the game does not hold your hands. Gameplay soons becomes very frantic and somtimes confusing. The game will use the 360 space around you. But I found that if you only focus on what's happening 180 degrees in front of you, you'll mostly be fine. The game music is good. The graphics are simple, yet well done. Enemies look unique from other VR games. In fact, the gameplay itself is pretty unique. I don't think I have ever played anything like it. At the sale price of $2.99 it's an easy recommend. Spherical gameplay with unique gameplay to it. Rating 7/10

Very different from anything else out there and very fun. The precision pointing controls make it quick and intutive to handle, though the rules of the game itself take a bit to understand. There's several minibosses and each is defeated in a different way. There's also about a dozen mode variations to spice up the main game.

Solid game. doesn't really hand hold, learning the mechanics was simple though. music works, very emersive and sets a pace to make you want to get a better score each time. the bosses have a learning curve to them but not so much I felt annoyed. Its different, addictive and simple mechanics that will take plenty of time and fun to master, just a solid game. If you want to try something different from the typical VR formats I would suggest giving this a go.

　　《灭菌大作战(Virush)》是一款动作休闲游戏。玩家在游戏中控制模拟成蛇形态的防护程序，为了防止病毒入侵，需要利用正常的数据包来强化自己，并摧毁病毒以及被感染的数据包。 　　仅仅只是看过游戏宣传，让我觉得游戏的操作方式跟《音乐竞技场》十分相似，不过将《音乐竞技场》中简单的箭头换作类似蛇的一个具象化形态，感观上要更胜一筹。其次游戏视频所体现的玩法又很像是《贪吃蛇》，初步印象就让人感觉似乎很有趣的样子。 　　在实际体验过后，发现游戏并没有如同《音乐竞技场》一般的节奏玩法，反而比较像是《贪吃蛇》的玩法，不过内容上要复杂一些，并不只是吃东西那么简单。 　　游戏支持中文字幕，有详细的新手教程，方便玩家了解具体的玩法操作。其实游戏的玩法并不难懂，除了“贪吃蛇”玩法，就是对付每一关出现的各种不同的病毒Boss，只要在不碰到它们的情况下，将它们圈进自己的蛇头和蛇尾就能消灭它们了，不过一定得首尾相连。 　　游戏操作非常自由，在360度的立体空间中，玩家可以控制大眼蛇任意游走，没有如同“贪吃蛇”一般碰到墙壁或自己的身体就会死的设定，唯一不能碰的只有病毒和感染体。 　　简单的画风和有趣的玩法总能吸引玩家，《灭菌大作战》也是如此，虽然玩法比较单一，但操作上却粗中带细。越往后也会比较有难度，还是很有挑战性的一款游戏。 　　基本的“贪吃蛇”玩法就不用多说了，玩家们可以随意吃掉场景中正常的数据包，一般根据场景不同颜色也会不同，但病毒和被感染的数据包都是呈红黑色的，大家千万不要看错了。 　　每关都会出现不同数量的感染体，不过都是些小喽啰，只要简单把它们圈起来就完事儿了。重头戏一般在最后的病毒，它们不但会动还会给玩家制造其他的病毒，千奇百怪的病毒主体本来就不好对付，还要分心去对付其他的病毒体，也是够手忙脚乱的了。 　　更重要的是玩家的操作不仅要快，还要精准的在不碰到它们的情况下圈中它们，有些距离较近的病毒体之间还需要格外的小心操作才行，真的很考验玩家的心态，稍微一慌乱就可能影响手上的操作了。 　　另外游戏还有个辅助工具，在玩家操作大眼蛇吃掉正常的数据时，蛇身会有个进度条，吃满之后就会获得一个炸弹，不嫌数量可以类似获取。不过炸弹对病毒主体无效，只能炸炸小病毒，用途不是很大，在关卡最后可以通过场景底部的圈换取分数。 　　游戏在病毒主体的设计上颇下功夫，如果仅仅只有简单又重复的内容，游戏就谈不上什么乐趣了。所以游戏在每个小关的病毒主体设计都不一样，无论是造型还是玩法甚至是难度，都完全不一样，丰富了游戏的内容，也是游戏更具趣味性与操作性。 　　体验过后感觉游戏很像是VR进阶版的“贪吃蛇”，加入了一些别样的玩法，显得更加吸引玩家的眼球。游戏震动反馈比较合理，虽然并不强烈，但也算符合游戏的内容设定，主要是操作反馈十分灵敏，手感很不错。 　　简单的画面有时候并不能说是游戏的不足，游戏的画面虽然简洁，但就玩家体验来说却是合情合理的。因为游戏快节奏的操作，还有需要360度的旋转，画面若是过于复杂的话，反而容易产生晕眩感，这样简洁的画面更适合游戏的玩法。 　　而且游戏的场景非常清晰，尽管简单但建模却很细致，每关都有色彩上的变化，从背景到数据包还有大眼蛇的身体，不会让玩家有单调的感觉。五彩缤纷的色调搭配看起来也不会刺眼，整体视觉效果很好，画面处理得也很到位，即便是旋转操作也没有晕眩的感觉。 　　游戏的背景音乐节奏感非常鲜明，电子乐呈现得比较动感，但感觉节奏点有些偏慢，没有感受到快感，却显得有些沉闷，虽然能突出一些游戏的紧张感，但跟游戏快节奏的操作有些不搭，反而没有音效来得活泼。 　　游戏体验很有意思，各种不同的病毒设计更是颇具新意。一方面在“贪吃蛇”玩法上操作比较自由，360度的立体空间内操作不受限制，另一方面在对付各种病毒时，有需要谨慎细致的操作，让游戏在动作控制上很有层次。 　　目前《灭菌大作战(Virush)》在steam上的售价为22元。游戏虽然玩法比较单一，但内容上有不一样的设计，并且操作性很强，喜欢动作游戏的玩家们不妨换换口味，试试这种休闲有趣风格的游戏，推荐玩家们购买体验。 http://www.83830.com/game/201706/105031972_1.shtml

5.5 out of 10 My opinion is quite opposite to the other reviews. Granted it's something different for VR which is commendable and it's a slick well presented title. But in the clear light of day it's a pretty basic game that's not that exciting. A 10 minute stint is enough with little to keep you coming back often.

Virush is simple yet entertaining game that’s easy to pick up. The graphics are simple yet stand out well, and the controls are dead simple. The core gameplay is nice, easy to get into and makes good use of the entire space around you. The game could use a bit more polish, but for the price it’s available for, you can’t really complain.

Super fun especially the challenge modes!

A great little arcade game where your move your cursor around a 360 degree dome collecting things that turn into mines if you don't collect them fast enough and fighting mini bosses by moving your cursor in a particular way around them. It's very simple but suprisingly fun. You have to balance fighting the miniboss against collecting the things. The only thing that I think could possibly need balanced is to collect bombs slower and maybe give the player an extra life after so many points. I'm not sure though. There are also a dozen shorter challenge modes which change up the rules up in fun ways, and since the VR community is so small I was able to place pretty high on a few of them. A very underrated unknown little VR arcadey game.
