Description: BladeShield is an action-packed, VR sci-fi game that makes full use of room-scale VR and tracked controllers. Use your military grade BladeShields to fight off successive waves of rogue A.I. enemies — including sawbots, blaster bots, and mega turrets. Charge up your BladeShields to unleash a devastating EMP blast! How long can you last in this futuristic survival game?
Review: BladeShield isn’t going to win any gameplay or design awards, but it does do what it needs to do. It is a little bit of fun for a little price. You get a shield and a lightsaber and need to defend yourself from various killer robots. I have to say it really doesn’t hold back and at times can get quite manic quite early on in the game. This is not such a bad thing as it does give you a bit of a workout as well. This is worth the asking price of £1.99, but I wouldn’t want to pay any more than that.
