Description: Holopoint is pure archery madness. Fight your way through waves of responsive targets, samurai, and highly dangerous ninjas – all while drawing, nocking, and shooting your arrows as quickly as possible.

Holopoint is a skill-based game where progression is based on player skill and training rather than unlocks. Like many arcade-style games, personal progress and a high score is the goal. This game quickly becomes difficult and requires an active mindset. Holopoint is designed so that only a few determined archers will reach the last wave.

Review: If you like your VR games to be physical Holopoint is for you. While little more than a basic looking archery game with on-point bow mechanics it will make you run around your play space like you are auditioning for a Robin Hood movie. This is not a game that allows you to stand still and shoot, this game makes your move, duck, lean, shoot, turn and just about anything else that will make you sweat. I really did enjoy playing this and thought it was a great game, but for the full asking price you don’t get a lot of gameplay depth, so do wait for a sale before making a purchase.
