Review: On paper maybe ‘Escape From The Void’ sounded like a good idea for a game. It’s a multiplayer-only game in which one player (the none VR player) has to move blocks into position for the other player (the one in VR) to complete a task, or shine a light, or tell the VR player where to go. With 40+ levels this game should have been worth the download, but the basic nature of the game means there really isn’t a lot here at all, especially when it comes to the graphics. OK, in VR it’s not terrible, but for the player using the screen, we are talking 8-bit style graphics! While this game has some good ideas the high price and basic nature of it means I don’t feel I can recommend it. Maybe if you are going to host a VR party you could give it a go, but otherwise, I don’t see anyone enjoying this at all.
