FamilyWorldRoam
Just purchased this game to see how chill it was. It’s pretty chill. I tried all the different things: space station (one room, as far as I could tell), painting (bob rossish), air balloon – I was testing this in seated position and i was excited above all else to try air balloon…it doesn’t work seated. I also haven’t seen an in-game options menu to change any controls, raise or lower, etc. Ferris Wheel was fairly generic but an interesting and simple introduction as it was the first button I tried. Fireworks was pretty cool, again standard with not many to play with but it has potential and is fun to mingle with. Underwater had fun movement controls which made it interesting trying to time the movements with the sea creatures…and interestingly the controls are similar on the space station, nice floaty underwater effect right there. Aurora…now this one I really enjoyed. I free-roamed over to the lightning bugs and just looked around, it was beautiful, kept going and fell off the map. I was then under the map, walking on water jesus mode while seeing above some of how it had been built, there’s so much you could do with that map if you wanted to, I’d play that as a shooter map even….that experience was enough to give this a positive review. As far as first impressions go, it was relaxing and I enjoyed it. As far as critique, please add more control and camera options in time. I would prefer walking with the left thumbstick and turning/looking with the right thumbstick, I’m sure many others would too. Not bad though, not bad at all.

‘FamilyWorldRoam’ is a collection of 6 experiences from a slow hotair balloon flight, to a giant Ferris wheel and even some drawing. If this was free it might have been worth a look, but it most definitely isn’t worth the £4.79 asking price. It looks OK at times I suppose, but that is the only praise I can give it. The first main problem is that the developer describes this as an app that “doesn’t need complex operation”, but it is an utter shit-show to move about. There are far better things to show people new to VR that doesn’t need any movement so when this app fails to do even that it makes it kind of pointless.

Panoptic
I’ve followed this game ever since I watched Node play it on their channel. Since then, I’ve followed gameplay videos and watched their development, hoping for the day I could play it. Once I finally got my VR headset, it was the first game I bought. And I can only say it was well worth it. Shortly after, they fully released the game, introducing more features, new sound design, and a cool new map. Today, the gameplay never gets old, and I enjoy challenging myself both at the keyboard and in the headset. Every game is different, and it challenges your approach and attention to detail. Great party game if you ask me - the fun never ends. My only complaint is that one of the maps has a bug that affects the headset with glitchy movement (disorienting), which is a shame - I love the art and music in that level. Team Panoptes, if you read this, please try to fix this issue. After that, I will have no further complaints over what I consider one of my top favorite VR games.

This is the only multiplayer VR game I have truly enjoyed. Panoptic brings great innovation in the VR genre! I hope to see more local multiplayer VR games with headset vs keyboard/mouse players.
Currently, the game has 7 levels, all beautifully and intricately designed. Some are easier for the Challenger, others are easier for the Overseer. Settings allow you to tweak the difficulty to handicap either player. Playing in VR as the Overseer truly feels like you are overseeing a world of minions doing your bidding. Playing as the Challenger makes you feel small with tense game play and a struggle to survive. It’s amazing how well the developers made two very unique, asymmetric experiences in one game.

Detached: Non-VR Edition
Beautiful game placed in space, originally created for VR and now available in nonVR version. It’s FPX game where we want to survive and find a way to get back home safely from malfunctioned space station. This will require a skill to control your spacesuit powered with fuel. We also need a oxygen and both of these can by found around by exploring an open world of the damaged space station. Some puzzle needs to be solved in the game to complete some of the tasks like opening the doors or activate various systems. Great looking and well optimized graphics and nice sounds well making a feeling of loneliness in empty space. Game has cross-platform PvP mode. Detached is a fantastic game that I’m hoping to play in VR mode some day.

I would love to recommend this game, it’s quite a nice, short FPS story. Flying around in an authentic zero-g experience on Realistic mode was amazing, it’s the kind of game I like most. There’s not much shooting, just floating through space finding the path out, with enough light puzzles to not be boring.
Unfortunately, finding the small progression MacGuffins in level 2 was awful. They were hidden away and difficult to find when trying to progress the story. It took me a few hours flying around looking for them. I found a few, but they were placed near another progression point later down the line, so taking them earlier than I’m supposed to means I have to look for others in the more difficult places anyway.

Rainbow Reactor
EDIT: 1/21/19 - I originally expressed hesitation toward paying full game price, but that was before I realized the FULL ACCESS version would be much larger, and almost certainly a better cost / content ratio. Yes, I think a bigger and better game will be more worthwhile and more fun game.
–———————————————————
I paid full (sale) price (and I’m glad I did!)
This reviewer just spent 30 minutes playing Rainbow Reactor, and I had such a great time I (literally) had to force myself to stop! While perhaps not the world’s biggest fan of color matching games, I’m far from a stranger to the genre, and I have enjoyed it often while on Steam. Yet even in that context I don’t hesitate to take this opportunity to say that color matching through a combination of dexterity and strategy (mostly strategy, I’m inclined to think at this point) is just remarkably fun, and I sincerely thank the friend who told me about Rainbow Reactor.

I like this game. It’s a little more hectic than I expected but it’s unlikely to make you sweat. I particularly like that I got it at 67% off, it’s definitely a bargain at that price!
I completed the 8 levels of the main game in about 2hrs but haven’t managed to clear the bonus time stage. I also had a little teleport around. I haven’t tried SINGLE SHIFT yet.
The world you are in is well made and gives some grandeur to what is otherwise a quite simplistic game i.e. throw coloured ball in hole. However it does that very well. The colour blending (light not paint) works nicely, but they have clearly spent quite some time getting the throw of the ball just right.

Pure Bowl VR Bowling
I’ve been playing Pure Bowl VR on an Oculus Quest through Virtual Desktop and it works great.
I’ve never been great at bowling in real life, and I’m not very good in Pure Bowl VR either so that’s solid commendation for the game’s accurate bowling physics! Thankfully it offers a bunch of super detailed settings to alter lane setup, assists, and difficulty, so I can set up a game exactly how I want.
The recent update which adds a tournament mode (basically a knockout against progressively more difficult AI opponents) gives a bit more flavour to each game, and the new lane looks fantastic.

Played on Oculus Quest 2 via Virtual Desktop and SteamVR - Works perfectly!
Really quite an interesting concept, controls are good for the most part, took a little getting used to but after a few settings tweaks its borderline perfect. Early access obviously so its sort of barebones but I’m sure more content will be added. Will absolutely be playing more in the near future!
