Description: Mind Unleashed is a first-person Sci-Fi shooter game specifically designed for Virtual Reality. You are a robot that is trying hard to survive in a secret military base, inside a rocky mountain. Rocks and futuristic stuff will surround you in this epic challenge where you’ll need to survive as long as possible, fighting hordes of robotic enemies. Pick up very advanced weapons, take cover and wait the right time to destroy your enemy and play with a strategy if you want to survive!

Review: Mind Unleashed is a basic first-person sci-fi shooter that in my opinion does have a lot of potential. It looks OK and there is a good range of weapons and enemies to use them on. For the price, this is a small game that could be something much greater than it currently is. But sadly it is the controls that really let this game down. You can’t seem to align to a gamepad and you can’t use the mouse effectively in VR. It’s like a weird combination of both of them. Then there is all the other bugs and constant game crashing that really puts me off advising anyone to download it. Maybe after a few updates, it could be something fun to play. But, for now, it really is best avoided.
