I waited so long for this game to fully release. I had goosebumps when I played
it. I actually unlocked everything on the first day because I could not stop
playing. It is a fun and different game that I highly highly recommend. Be
careful though, hard mode is hard.

Starship Troopers Continuum had some big shoes to fill with this well known IP
jumping in VR for the first time. I had a chance to give it a try with two of my
friends: Spencer and SpaceRoach and we had a blast! Definitely a game that I
encourage playing in multiplayer for a better experience. After a quick 10
minutes tutorial that explains the fundamental, you are thrown in a hub where
you can purchase and equip new weapons, set new abilities to your soldier, and
this is where you'll be setting a session to play the campaign with your friend.
Your goal is basically to go from point A to point B on the map, and exterminate
every alien that's in your way, including a pretty crazy boss at the end of the
map. You'd think that the game would become pretty casual while playing with
others, but this game is no joke guys, we miserably failed the second map and
trust me, I tried really hard to make it to the end. So yeah, the game has some
replayability since you level up and get better skills as you progress. It's
well worth the purchase.

This chaotic rhythm game brings hilarious fun with unique "tooting" mechanics
and quirky upgrades like cat trombones. It’s perfect for casual laughs, with
plenty of challenges and mixed-reality integration to show off your setup. While
the controls can be tricky at first, the humor and replayability make it a
standout on Quest!

About 5 months ago, UploadVR has given us a showcase showing an assortment of
exciting games on VR. Ember Souls was one of the game on there and it definitely
caught my attention since the trailer was showing a very promising full fledge
action adventure that seemed inspired by the Prince of Persia series. Fast
forward to today, I've played and completed the game to it's fullest and it's
time for me to share my complete opinion on the game. Will this one be talked
about in the many coming months? Or will it be lost in the sands of time. Let's
find out! Ember Souls came out on November 21st, 2024 for $24.99 and is
available for the Meta Quest 2, 3 and 3S. The game was developed by VirtualAge
who are known for Guardians Frontline. A game inspired by Halo and also contains
some cool strategy mechanics in there. If you're on the Meta Quest+
Subscription, make sure to have a look since it's currently part of the service.
Gameplay So this is a full on action adventure story focused game. Your main
goal is to travel in these levels where you'll have an assortment of things to
do. Combat First, I want to talk about the combat. I've heard many having a
mixed opinion on it. But I personally enjoyed it. You get a lot of mechanics
that you can use to your advantage. You have your typical sword that you can
swing to deal damage to the enemy, but let say that there's an archer at a
distance, I love picking up my small dagger and throwing it at them so they
don't disrupt me from my close combat. And when you are overwhelmed by enemies,
you have special abilities that you can do like a big push, or flames coming out
of your hands for example, but you acquire many more abilities that you can take
advantage of. Some enemies have armor, so you have to make sure to hit them at
spots that they can't block, and there's a variety of enemies like skeletons,
mages, and even bats. I had a fun time in the combat most of the time. Parkour
Another part of the game is the parkour, and this is where the Prince of Persia
mechanics come into place. So you'll get parts in the game were you'll need to
do some wall riding to reach an obstacle, or when you're very high and need to
reach the ground floor, you'll get parts where you have to grab a banner to
slide down without getting fall damage. You will also encounter rooms with some
deadly traps that you have to avoid with some quick time reaction. The main
protagonist also have possession of a bow and arrows, which can be useful
sometimes to activate grabbable sections, and things like that. Puzzles The last
main aspect of the gameplay are puzzles! They are pretty light, but that's
understandable since you want to have a large variety of players finishing the
game. You'll get things like reflecting a beam of light in the proper position.
But my favorite puzzle is when you have to call your falcon friend and look
through his eyes to find the code to open a door. It just brings a little bit of
variety that I appreciate. There are some optional and mandatory puzzle
sections. Story The main protagonist is called Kasim, and you go on a trip to
find out what has happened to your immortal friends at the palace. To your
surprise, you're greeted by a falcon named Alshain, and you learn that all of
your friends has either been killed, or possessed by some dark magic that's
happening. Throughout your adventure, you also encounter a lady named Arya who
you rescue, and then learn about the 4 magic stones that you need to find to
break the spell from this giant palace. I loved the story overall, it doesn't
overstay its welcome and pretty easy to follow. There are some nice interaction
between the falcon and the hero. Sometimes they even have some small funny
moments. Although, one nitpick that I have is that they both have kind of a
similar voice. So sometimes it would take me a moment before I could
differentiate both voices. I've learned that the developers are actually
re-working the voices and we should see a new patch for it sometime soon, so
this could definitely not be an issue in a bit. Something that was also recently
added is positioning audio, so you'll know exactly who's talking by knowing
where they're talking from. Modes So the main campaign took me around 6 hours to
complete on the hardest difficulty, and it was a solid 6 hours. It didn't drag
too much, and I find that it wasn't too short either. There are some
replayability aspect since there are prisoners and collectables that you have to
find in all 15 levels of the campaign. Raid There is a side mode that you can
play called Raid. You basically have access to a bunch of dungeons that you can
play where you have to find the exit as fast as possible. You get a nice map on
your wrist that will help you to find the location that you need to go. It's
great if you've finished the game, but just want more of it. What's nice is that
all of the experience and money that you get from the raid, transfers over to
your main campaign. So you can grind and get some nice perk if you want to! But
it's not necessary. There is also a weekly showcased raid that you can do, which
is great because this is where you'll find a bunch of people trying to be on the
top. Sandbox Another mode currently available is sandbox. You can select the
type of obstacles that you want to have in your arena, the type of enemies that
you want to fight, the weapons, and also other little settings. It is fun if you
want to practice the combat or just play around with things. When we look at the
menu, looks like we'll also be seeing a mixed reality mode in the future, but it
is not currently available. Graphics When I started the game, a concern to me
that came right away is that this could be an asset flip, or just a quick cash
grab. But when playing, you can see that there has been enough work in it to be
it's own unique visuals. It's not amazing, but also, it doesn't feel cheap. It's
right in the middle. There are some locations that are very well crafted and
thought of, to a point where I stopped and just looked at the scenery to
appreciate what I was seeing. It's well balanced. Music The music did stand out
to me, and I was not expecting that! I find that the composition just really
hits well with the style of the game and just plain well done. I especially love
around the end of the game where the music gets intense, I just wish that the
intensity of the song would last longer because I was really vibing during that
part haha. Bugs So, you know, the game is not perfect. I've encountered a lot of
issues during my playthrough and I've reported all of them to the developers. 10
in total and this is why you're seeing numbers on this since this is the
detailed video that I've sent them. Thankfully, the devs are super committed at
fixing and tweaking the game and we've just received a new patch that fixed many
of the issues that I had. Like this bug where I got transported to another
dimension for example, you won't see that one. But there are bugs still
happening like an infinite loading time, or weird graphical and fps glitch that
happened to me from time to time. This is still being investigated. Another one
is there's a few times where I was able to get out of bound, and there is this
one time where an enemy got through a wall, and it took a long time for it to
respawn back so I could continue the level, but at least it did end up getting
unstuck. The game is fun, I really enjoyed my time with it and it's very well
constructed. But because of the issues that it's having right now, it did affect
the fun factor a little. With the new patch, I think that it's worth a purchase
because it is one awesome journey that you're going through, but maybe it's
worth waiting a little bit also because they are still reworking on things like
the voice acting and they are also improving things in the combat. So what i can
say is that your playthrough will be more enjoyable than mine, and that's
telling something because I did enjoy it!

Amazing way to use mixed reality. This game allows you to start your very own
habitats and ecosystems right in the comfort of your own play space. Place
critters in their respected biomes as you must feed, breed, and even keep them
alive from predators. I think this game is actually educational as it teaches
you about of pet care and where animals come from.

The trailer for this game did not do it justice. The game is very arcade like
but if your a fan of starship troopers this is a must have title. The game can
be played in a full story coop which is really fun with friends. The bugs are
massive and it really makes you feel like your doing your part! Must download if
you want to experience the nostalgia that is starship troopers.

Ember Souls is a game that is very similar to Prince Of Persia. The game does
offer some really cool gore mechanics but is still a bit buggy at the moment.
There are puzzles to solve and of course the parkour aspect of being able to
climb and jump on multiple things. The combat is kind of lacking as all you
really have to do is swing your arms around. The game has a great concept to it
but really needs polish.

This is by far the best way to experience a pinball machine in virtual reality.
This game takes you inside the machine and has you enjoying a fast paced game of
pinball up close and personal. I love the design of the game and how easy it is
to use your controllers and bumpers. It really adds to the immersion and the fun
with the several types of machines too. The game also has leaderboard to compete
for high scores!

This game has had a great update which makes it run alot smoother and is
actually impressive for what it is. It uses mixed reality to another level that
even had me crawling around in my own play space. You get to build your own town
that gets to have its own locations around your room. Characters come and
perform various jobs as they perform vital tasks to keep your town alive. i was
really impressed how each person is doing their own thing and you can sit back
and watch them all live. Great story, fun concept!

This is by far the best standalone racing game for VR. The game runs much
smoother than most race sims and it shows. The game has many tracks with day and
night cycles, customization of your buggy, and even online racing and
leaderboard. There is even a game mode that allows you to destroy each other
with power ups like Mario Kart. Overall the game is very enjoyable and takes
some time to get used to the car setup as it feels like your on dirt 24/7 but
thats how a buggy rides!

Dumb Ways Free For All is a great edition to the already established mobile

friends. Its great fun for the whole family.

The Link is a game from a very small indie developer, but the idea is so unique!
You get thrown into mazes with invisible walls. Your job is to find the end of
the room, and you can only know the way by spray painting the walls The game is
a little creepy, you'll sometimes encounter red substances and you have to make
sure to avoid those since they're dangerous. You will also hear very creepy
voices in the distances and some weird stuff can happen. Make sure to bring a
few pairs of trousers. The single indie developer has also added a little bit of
a backstory to it. You start in some kind of laboratory, and the people over
there are kind of studying the red anomaly, and looks like they've found a way
to control them. Very unsettling. This also acts as a hub and you are presented
with a board that contains all of the levels that you can do. I have a good
sense of direction, but you can definitely get lost easily in there, I find that
the developer has done a good job with the level design since he's really good
at finding ways to trick you. Pick the game up! It's super cheap.

I was pretty excited to get my hands on this game since we started seeing some
pretty cool footage from the content creators who were able to try the game
during the Home of XR and were pretty enthusiastic about it. I was able to get
my hands on it pre-release and after playing around four and a half hours, I
came out of it with a little bit of disappointment. I'm sure that you're curious
into why I feel like this since this is such an innovative Mixed Reality idea,
so lets get right into it! Wall Town Wonders came out on November 21st 2024 for
$19.99 and is available for the Meta Quest 3 and 3S. The developers of the game
are Cyborn, who are well known for their award winning game Hubris! It's not a
game that I had a chance to try yet, but I know that this sci-fi action
adventure game had a lot of praise. Alright onto Wall Town Wonders now. Gameplay
So the idea of the game is super cool and unique. Your main goal is to build a
town on your actual wall. Every time that I was turning on the headset and saw
all of these buildings on the wall, it was pretty awesome. To upgrade or build
more buildings, you have to basically gather resources. The buildings will
mostly require wood, bricks and metal to be able to be made. The main way to
gather these materials is by going into mine expeditions. When you go in these,
your town will disappear, and then you'll get into a cave that you have to
explore with your miner. You can only do these expeditions once a day in real
time, but as you keep playing, you get more way to gain these resources. You'll
obtain buildings that will automatically generate those resources in real time.
So you can gather them as they appear, or you can take a break from your
headset, and then when you come back, you'll have a good chunk of resources to
gather. There's also other minigames that you can play that will help you gain
resources faster. Another really important resource is the food! You'll need it
mostly to go in expeditions with your lizard to find more mines if you don't
feel like waiting for a day. You can gather food by growing your farm, or by
doing some fishing. Last resource that you have are stars. You gather them just
by playing the game or trying some mini games, it's kind of like experience
point. You can use them to buy different new cosmetics for your townpeople or
your buildings. But later in the game, some building upgrade may require them.
Game Flow That's pretty much the whole concept of the game! You gather resources
to build more buildings to gain more townspeople and so on and so forth. Going
in, this is what I was expecting for sure. The thing though, is that I was
looking for something relaxing, something to lose my mind in a peaceful and
mindless setup, but as I kept playing, it felt more like a chore simulator than
a relaxing crafting world for me personally. The game starts strong, since
you're greeted with some nice silly cutscenes and you get introduced to a lot of
new characters. While you're learning how to play, and you get to build a lot of
new things and discover some nice things to do. But I'd say at around one and a
half hour, you get to a point where you're in a loop to gather more resources to
make more buildings, and that loop just don't seems to end. The loop is as
followed: the core thing that you need are resources to craft buildings. The
first thing that you need is food, and your farm doesn't grow fast enough, so
you need to go fish a few times. Then you need to go on an expedition with your
lizard using the food to find a mine. Then you mine your resources. Then you
have to do it all over again. As you keep going, there's a little bit more
variety of things that you can do, but it doesn't add to the fun factor after
doing it a few times. You just end up with the same goal throughout the game.
After upgrading my townhall to tier 5, and noticing that it didn't add up to any
new variety, I've simply decided that I was done and couldn't bare the idea that
I just needed to grind again with no new added mechanic. Also, every time that
you have to start something, the townperson will have the same dialogue and I
wish that I could just skip it, it doesn't add anything new. There's 2 things
that I can think that could've helped in making this game better: The first
quick and easy one would be to introduce a trading store where you can simply
trade one of your resource to something else. There were many times where my
bricks where maxed out, but I had no wood at all. It was annoying going to the
mine grinding wood while I was wasting the brick resources. The second thing is
that I feel like there's something missing to break the ice. Like, I wish that
there would be some events in the game that would stop you from doing your work
for resources. There are some minigames in there like a flying a plane going
through hoops to get experience, but there's not enough for me to keep doing it
since it's extremely optional. It'd be nice to have things such as needing to
complete these minigames to unlock buildings that you have to build, or things
like that. Graphics Something that I've heard during some Home of XR footage is
people telling how great the characters looked up close. That instantly reminded
me of Demeo where the game looks gorgeous when you zoom in the board. I did not
get this feeling with the game sadly. The thing is that it's using dynamic
resolution rendering, and for some reason, when I record my gameplay, the game
thinks that I'm using a lot of resources and it needs to lower down the
resolution to the max. So when I go close to the characters, it just looks very
blurry from the headset. This is not an issue when you're not recording, but it
personally affected my enjoyment. No other games I've played that lower down the
resolution THAT much when recording. The game also felt pretty janky. Many times
there would be a frame skipping or a lag that would be noticeable when I move
around. Since this is Mixed Reality, it really breaks the immersion when it
happens, and it's a little hard on the eyes. Bugs/Issues So I did encounter some
annoying bugs in the game. Some even that prevented me from completing a
minigame, but it didn't stop me from progressing at least. Something to note is
that the developers are aware of the bugs, and there should be a patch fixing
most of this in the next few days, so keep a lookout. The first bug I've
encountered is a minigame with a lizard where I have to search for berry seeds
to grow in my farm. The lizard tells me where the seed is to dig, but he never
actually dig it out. So I was never able to grow this kind of food. Second bug
is when I do the airplane minigame, the rings that I have to go in goes behind
my furniture for some reason even though it's in front. The air lines following
the plane and the indicator for the plane to follow also goes behind it. Third
bug is there is some money that I can't gather in my town. You need to just
touch the resource to obtain it, but there are just some that doesn't pick up.
Last bug is during an air balloon minigame, there's a specific dropzone that I
just can't drop any crates on. It just goes straight through it. So guys this is
mostly what I had to say about the game. Very promising at first, but my journey
through it ended up in frustration at the end. There's a patch coming soon that
could fix all of this, but I'm here to give you guys the experience that I have
right now, and personally, I probably won't be touching it again due to my
impression of it. And it's not as if I didn't try, I did play 4 and a half hours
of it, but it's just not for me. I do hope that the game improves and does well
in the long run because it is definitely a cool concept.

One of the most visually interesting puzzle games I've played in VR and the MR
mode is very clean! Definitely worth checking out.

This is a great game for any age. This game is based on the card game of the
same name. The game has a few different modes and they are all easy to pick up
and once you do you are flying. You can play with friends or random people
online you can even add bots. It's a turn based game where the aim is to steal
items from your opponents and make sure they pick the bomb not you. Really fun
and each round can go very differently.
