90 / 100 - Moss
Aug 13, 2018

Moss is yet another great example of how Virtual Reality can enhance traditional game genres, whether they are first person or third person games. Creating such a dynamic and creative exploration of the environment, as well as establishing a strong connection with Quill in such an immersive and engaging way are qualities that only Virtual Reality could provide. A sequel, bigger and as good as this first volume of Moss, is more than obligatory.

Yoku's Island Express innovates by combining pinball mechanics to platform and metroidvania genres, blending them in a unique and fun way. Despite focusing too much on pinball and having few moments of action (that, when occur, are well-made and creative), the game has an interesting story and a dazzling world to be explored.

70 / 100 - Audio Beats
Apr 15, 2018

Audio Beats brings rhythm games to Virtual Reality platforms, presenting great mechanics that explore well the virtual space. However, offering only five tracks to play is disappointing, and for that, Audio Beats is more of a proof of concept than a full game. If future updates including more content were to be offered by the developers, Audio Beats will become a great addition to the PlayStation VR library.

The third and last installment of The Pillars of the Earth invests heavily in its narrative, bringing a cohesive closure to the story, filled with struggle, surprise and emotion. On the other hand, this also results in little interactivity for the player, limited to making dialogue decisions and a few opportunities for exploration. As a whole, the game is a positive recommendation due to the beauty in its art and good story, a bold adaptation to the epic saga created by Ken Follet, changing events and even the destiny of some characters when compared to the original work.

68 / 100 - Island Time VR
Apr 3, 2018

Island Time VR is a survival game with easy gameplay mechanics and quick matches, which can easily become chaotic if the player is not careful. Even though it is an entertaining experience, the game offers a limited amount of activities that can be done, becoming a title to be played occasionally for a short period of time or in the company of a group of friends.

The second book of The Pillars of the Earth brings a fast pace to the story and shows that, not only the construction of the cathedral is growing, but so are the dangers lurking around the characters. Decisions made by the player may change some story plots when compared to the original book, even taking unexpected directions. The game itself also changes important parts of the story, with absences and superficial treatment to some themes that may not please fans of the book.

75 / 100 - The Inpatient
Feb 3, 2018

The Inpatient is a first-person horror game for PlayStation VR that takes place decades before the events of Until Dawn. Although the story takes place during an important time in which the origins of the enemy from the original game are explained, The Inpatient touches superficially on those events, focusing more on a psychological terror and in its own narrative - you are a patient in Blackwood Sanatorium, suffering from amnesia and blackouts, trying to understand how and why you are there. While the game has great graphics and good moments of horror and tension, sometimes it gets tedious and is relatively short, not justifying the high launch price.

This season ends with a cheesy episode, but it is entertaining during its last part and provides a closure to most of the story plots. Overall, the second season of Minecraft: Story Mode has brought a surprisingly good combat system and boss battles, however, the decisions made during the campaign had a minor relevance when compared to the first season.

77 / 100 - Obduction
Dec 17, 2017

Obduction is a great first person puzzle game, developed by the makers of Myst, thus being a spiritual successor to this game. The player will find clever and challenging puzzles within a mysterious world that gradually reveals a dense and intriguing story, all of this followed by a great art direction, creating stunning and complex environments. Unfortunately, performance issues and lack of optimization bring constant stuttering and a long loading time, being a source of anger and frustration after some time. The delay in fixing these problems and bringing an expected update to the PSVR overshadows the many qualities of the game.

A Walk in the Park is the expansion for The Surge that takes the player to explore CREO World, an amusement park inside CREO's facilities. Just like in the main game, something went wrong and the new region is destroyed, with its employees acting hostile - including the park's mascots. Although it does not include any structural change or new mechanics, there is a fair amount of new enemies and a good deal of weapons, armor and implants that make the expansion worthwhile.

85 / 100 - Doom VFR
Dec 10, 2017

DOOM VFR brings a new and exclusive campaign to Virtual Reality. Combat is still fast-paced and rewarding. Fortunately, motion sickness and visual fatigue hardly ever happen when played in small sessions. Enemies and most of the scenarios are well-known, but seeing them up close, in a scale close to real, provides a much more fascinating and terrifying feeling. While the game is playable with a pair of PS Move and Aim VR, I recommend using the good-old DualShock 4.

Final Fantasy XV's spin-off, Monster of the Deep, is a fishing game that will surely please more the fans of the Final Fantasy series than any other player. Virtual Reality grants advantages to fishing, be it the freedom of movement or the immersion in the environment. However, casting is very difficult and counterintuitive, which takes a chunk of the fun. Graphics are presented in a level of details that the PSVR cannot deliver, which also adds up to an experience that could have been better.

Skyrim VR is the best immersive experience that the player will get among the various versions already released of the game. The player will have the sensation of actually being in the northern cold lands of Tamriel, exploring its diverse and beautiful settings and interacting with NPCs. On the other hand, in terms of graphics, the game has inferior visuals compared to the remastered version. Using a pair of PlayStation Move as controllers is both liberating and frustrating, due to several tracking problems that greatly disrupt the combat, thus making this type of control more of an experience that entertains momentarily, but that inevitably will make the player stick to the DualShock.

The fourth episode of the second season of Minecraft: Story Mode focuses again in its story, with scarce moments of action and exploration. In compensation, the main characters have a good amount of time for their development. It is not the best episode, but a good warmup for the ultimate battle against Romeo, the Admin playing antagonist in this season.

80 / 100 - Just Dance 2018
Oct 29, 2017

With its interface and features redesigned, Just Dance 2018 brings a breath of fresh air to Ubisoft's dancing game, more modern, lean and accessible. The Kids Mode, a section specially designed to children, is a very welcome addition to the game. Even though this edition does not bring any incredible new feature, the small modifications, along with a set list very up to date and a generous three-month subscription to Just Dance Unlimited, justify the purchase.

PlayStation VR is a flexible technology, open to innovations and different approaches on game development. The Invisible Hours is a title that takes advantage of the VR device to present an unusual game: an immersive theater in which the player acts as a ghostly presence, free to explore and observe a series of interwoven plots, all centered on the murder of Nikola Tesla. Combining historical and fictional characters in a murder mystery play, the story is very well written, resembling Agatha Christie's novels, and keeps the player engaged. With many events happening simultaneously, the player is encouraged to go back or advance on the story, in order to discover new facts by following the footsteps of different characters, which delivers several surprises and an unexpected end.

The Solus Project is a survival game that mixes exploration with an entertaining space science fiction narrative. The player is the sole survivor of a spaceship crash, trapped in an unknown planet with a hostile climate, and needs to find food, keep a good body temperature, and seek shelter during various climate changes, while searching for a way to establish contact with the rescue team. To make matters worse, soon the player discovers that s/he may not be alone on this planet. Despite being developed by a small team, the game is surprisingly vast, with large areas to be explored and hundreds of secrets to be discovered, providing many hours of fun for a very affordable price.

After revealing his true identity (so far), the Admin throws Jesse and the gang into a prison, surrounded by a maze full of bizarre mutations of the monsters from the Minecraft universe. Breaking out of this prison will bring new revelations and also a tough decision right in the middle of the adventure. Most of the episode focuses on developing the story, but the player is rewarded at the end with good moments of action, including a boss fight.

Urban legends serve as a rich source material for horror stories. Don't Knock Twice is based on one, mixed with Slavic folklore to create a supernatural horror plot. It begins with clich' elements, but the story becomes interesting enough, with an unexpected twist towards the end. The game is compatible with VR and non-VR devices, but is definitively recommended to play it with the PSVR, as jump scares and moments of tension get a realistic feel, as well as interacting with the environment is much more intuitive.
