This might be a good game, but from the very start it is clear this isnt a finished game. Felt off, some weird visual issus, forced story, bugs and in the end when I really wanted to give it a chance, I clipped and got stuck. Il give it a go some day and adjust the review
Destaca por una dinámica de juego muy interesante y por lo bien que aprovecha los elementos de la realidad virtual. Me ha parecido un juego muy bueno en general, aunque en algunas secciones eché en falta alguna pista o ayuda más clara para no quedarme atascado.
Very fun VR game. Worked well on my meta 2. Does hurt the eyes if you play for long times, but thats on the VR, not the game. Great story.
its a good puzzle game
Its well presented and basically a combo story/puzzle game with some light action thrown into the mix. I found some of the puzzles a little frustrating as opposed to challenging because it required you to do some things that either didn't work too well in VR (and thus missed), red herrings thinking you can complete something when you cant and the need to jump between area locations even in the same timeline. Overall I would recommend the game for 12hrs or there about's. Devs you probably need to play test it a little more and catch the wtf do I do now moments from different players, but there were some very good moments in the game that you don't normally get with puzzle games.
Wanderer is a rare kind of virtual reality experience that captures the spirit of adventure and curiosity in a way few other VR titles manage to achieve. Developed and published by Mighty Eyes, it blends puzzle-solving, time travel, and storytelling into a deeply immersive narrative that challenges the player’s intellect while transporting them across centuries of human history. You play as Asher Neumann, an unlikely explorer living in a dystopian future who discovers a mysterious, sentient wristwatch that can manipulate time. What begins as a simple quest to repair a broken world quickly unfolds into an intricate journey through eras of discovery, conflict, and transformation—from ancient temples to the Apollo-era space race, from war-torn Europe to crumbling future ruins. Wanderer doesn’t just tell a story; it invites you to live within it, piece by piece, puzzle by puzzle. The game’s design philosophy centers on immersion and interaction, taking full advantage of virtual reality’s tactile capabilities. Every puzzle is grounded in physicality—you turn dials, piece together mechanisms, pour liquids, and carry objects across timelines. The mechanics of time travel are seamlessly woven into gameplay, requiring players to think creatively about how items and actions in one era can influence outcomes in another. This interconnectivity makes each environment feel like part of a larger, living puzzle. The wristwatch, named Samuel, acts as both your guide and tool, serving as a hub for inventory management and narrative commentary. The relationship between Asher and Samuel gives the experience a conversational rhythm, offering both exposition and moments of levity amid the game’s heavier thematic tones. The puzzles themselves range from straightforward logic challenges to complex, multi-step sequences that span several eras, and their design strikes a satisfying balance between accessibility and depth. A major strength of Wanderer lies in its atmosphere and production values. Every location feels handcrafted with care and narrative intention. Ancient ruins shimmer with mystery, lunar landscapes hum with quiet tension, and post-apocalyptic cityscapes convey both beauty and despair. The graphical fidelity is remarkable, especially in the VR medium, where technical limitations often restrict detail. Lighting, texture work, and environmental design all combine to create a sense of authenticity, as though the player truly stands within these moments in time. The sound design reinforces this immersion—ambient sounds, environmental echoes, and subtle musical cues shift dynamically with context. Voice acting across the cast is consistently strong, lending emotional depth to Asher’s journey, while the orchestral score gives the adventure a sweeping cinematic resonance that elevates each discovery and revelation. Where Wanderer truly distinguishes itself from other VR experiences is in how it treats exploration as a form of storytelling. Each environment is both a chapter of history and a puzzle box filled with secrets. Rather than guiding you explicitly, the game trusts you to observe, experiment, and piece things together. This approach rewards patience and curiosity, mirroring the mindset of a true explorer. The way the game transitions between time periods also feels organic—you can step from the Aztec empire to the 1960s in an instant, yet the consequences of your actions in one era often ripple subtly into another. This interconnected design gives the player a sense of agency rarely achieved in puzzle-driven games, especially in VR. That said, Wanderer isn’t without its imperfections. The game’s emphasis on realism and complexity sometimes leads to moments of frustration. A few puzzles rely on obscure logic or require revisiting previous areas multiple times, which can slow pacing. The action segments—though visually engaging—lack the polish and responsiveness of the puzzle mechanics, making them feel secondary rather than integral. Performance can vary depending on the platform, with the standalone versions showing occasional dips in visual fidelity or frame rate. These shortcomings, however, are minor compared to the overall craftsmanship of the experience, and they never truly disrupt the flow of the adventure. Wanderer succeeds because it understands that virtual reality thrives on presence and curiosity. Rather than overwhelming the player with endless systems or gimmicks, it creates a believable world and gives them the tools to engage meaningfully with it. The combination of tactile puzzles, branching narrative threads, and richly imagined settings results in an experience that feels as much about discovery as it does about problem-solving. For players who crave intelligent, atmospheric storytelling in VR—where history, science, and imagination collide—Wanderer offers one of the most complete and satisfying journeys available. It stands not just as a strong example of what VR can achieve, but as a reminder of how games can transport us through time and wonder when built with purpose and care. Rating: 8/10
Как бы я хотел написать хороший отзыв и сказать что игра мне понравилась, но к сожалению во второй половине она испортила всё впечатление ((( Гребаный софтлок в 1945 после прилета ракеты ((( 10 раз перезагружался, никакого эффекта, Смотрел прохождение - может сам дурак - но нет, всё делал правильно. По рекомендации в интернете запустил последнюю доступную главу (не лоад) и меня СИЛЬНО ОТКАТИЛО НАЗАД! Мне пришлось заново проходить рок концерт и в этот раз он стал тяжелее (игра видимо решила что мне очень понравилось раз я второй раз зашел и навалила челленджа) и самое ужасное — заново пришлось проходить гребаный сегмент с Майя где кривой лук нихера не стреляет и надо взрывать гребаные пушки, Я возненавидел этот сегмент и в первое прохождение, но когда игра меня заставила снова его проходить это было просто издевательство. В общем я приложил максимум усилий чтобы снова пройти эти сегменты, у меня отобрали все мои прокачки часов и разные предметы из эпох что я собирал (рестарт главы это не лоад, да), я отправился снова в 1945 и что вы думаете?!?!? ТОТ ЖЕ САМЫЙ СОФТЛОК!!!! НЕОВЗМОЖНО ПРОЙТИ ЭПИЗОД! Я целый день потратил на эту игру, хотел её пройти и закрыть гештальт в итоге настроение испорчено, игра не проходима, нервы вытрепаны ((( А самое обидное то что игра то мне нравилась! В неё было интересно играть и решать головоломки! Но к сожалению пройти её я не смогу ((( Разработчикам посылаю лучи говна! Испортили мне день! Зачем я только в вашу игру вляпался ((( Ещё и вторая часть куплена — на всякий случай сделаю рефанд — вдруг тоже свинью подложат разрабы. В общем хотел бы рекомендовать, но в виду обстоятельств рекомендую обойти стороной или СКАЧАТЬ С ЗЕЛЕНОГО МАГАЗИНА Денег не стоит сие творение и издевательство над игроками. Ах да, вишенкой на торте будет отстреливание советских солдат за нацистов.
É um jogo legal, mas as vezes os puzzles não são intuitivos e o seu relógio ajuda bem pouco no walkthrough. Cheguei quase perto de zerar, mas um bug fez com que um item ficasse em outra época, e não mais conseguir voltar, há varias pessoas que tiveram este problema, A solução seria voltar capítulos, então desanimei. Enfim, eu daria uma avaliação Neutra, nem bom nem ruim.
Oh well... I was a bit of sceptical after playing Alyx, i tought there are no games that could match the imersive level and such... But hell i was so wrong!!! I never tought it would be so soooo extremaly addictive and immersive! Worth every penny! Still on my journey... And guys... Just keep making games! Forget remakes just build more of such amazing sotries! I love it!
Eine unterhaltsame Sci-Fi-Geschichte. Die Rätsel sind ausgewogen, sodass man nicht zu schnell durch, aber auch nicht frustriert ist. Bin auf die Fortsetzung gespannt.
