Great Game but fatal glitch

The story and game play are super engaging and fun. I love the game and I am playing through it with my sister and we do a party chat together. There is one major flaw that makes the game infuriating! It very frequently says "get back to playing area" and you get stuck in a black zone. This happens most when moving through a portal or if you get to close to an object or wall. Only way to fix it is to go back to Shadow Point, which either resets your level or makes you go back through several steps to get back to where you were.

You need to experience this for yourself

There are touching stories in film and then there is this game. You can't compare the difference in the effect it will have on you to a movie you just saw. This game started slow and seemed like just another puzzle game but after 2 or 3 chapters in as the story starts to unravel you realize how entangled and attached you got in the story and to it's characters because you are not just a spectator but an acting part of it. Soon you will keep doing "just one more" puzzle just to see what happens next (or what happend before). It will take you to an emotional rollercoster with tragedy, joy, loneliness and greatfullnes. And when it all comes to an end and the credits roll - with the beautifull song of "I've got time" - you just stand there not sure what happend and what to feel. I still don't know what is this complex feeling I feel right now but I'm sure I will remember this experience for a very very long time! Your friend... and hers, just another greatfull player

Excellent first game

Just purchased an Oculus, the first time I have used any type of VR, I found this game to be a very very good starter game for people like me who are new to VR, and the other side of 50 lol, Excellent gameplay really nice graphics, good storyline and the puzzles well thought out which really made you think about how to solve them, I would highly recommend anyone of all ages to add this to they collection.

Im a first time VR user and went straight for this game. I have never experienced such a unique puzzle game that leaves me wanting for more. The VR experience within a puzzle world is awesome. Not sure how long the game is but i hope its a long one. I will pray that the devs make more content and longer hours of play! Good job people.

Great adventure, terrible loading time

Game company titles flashing in front of you is a long, if always annoying, tradition. Usually, you can let them play while you do something else. However, with current VR, developers like this one who choose to force you to watch full credits every single time you start the game for a cheeky 5 minute play make you stand there with a headset on, just waiting for all the logos to go by. Once you get to it, the game is fantastic. But if you've only got a few moments at a time to spare to escape into VR or adventure, this may frustrate you as it has me by consuming your free time by making you watch the same slow load sequence every single time you resume.
