Description: Shipwrecked on the small island of Harlath, players will adventure through a mysterious Island and multiple dungeons, battling foes, solving puzzles, and ultimately discovering the nature of the curse that looms over the island. Stones of Harlath is a VR first person adventure game. Players will play as a powerful battle mage, explore a mysterious island, adventure in many dungeons, wield swords & shields and cast powerful magic by drawing runes with their controller.

Review: ‘Stones Of Harlath’ is a retro-styled adventure game that sees you helping the local villagers and battling all manner of retro-looking monsters. While the graphics are not going to be for everyone I found them more than adequate to immerse me in the adventure ahead and to be fair there is a lot of adventure here with 4 hours plus of content. But it all feels a little shallow, a little…budget. I get that the price reflects this and I do recommend the game overall, but it’s not the big, grand adventure I have come to enjoy. Yes, it’s worth a look and its worth the money, but most players will come away from this game wanting a little more.
