Really original VR game that you can play locally with a friend who doesn't own a headset. I feel this is exactly the type of unique gameplay virtual reality is made for: the experience brings something completely different to the table compared to flat-screen gaming, apart from just increased immersion. Well done!

Very cool to play with my brother, though we considered the blue force field position revealer thing cheating.

Okay this game is really neat, gives you big "playing hide and seek as a kid" vibes. Except with fear. And one player's a big f***off eyeball. Amazing level design, very artistic.

Perfect Game! Just getting into the whole VR scene and it's very strange that for most games on VR there have just been devs that drop off the face of the earth? 4 year old games releasing as ver.1.0 and just never actually getting any updates ever again.... Seems normal though across the games so not sure why that is...
