Wraith: The Oblivion - Afterlife

We solve the grim mystery of a ritual night in a lavish mansion. People died there - including us. A spooky VR horror game. A decent representative of the genre. Just two negative points about WTOA: Your movement is too slow. It's dark. Really dark. Sometimes you can barely see anything.

Abysmally slow movement coupled with no hiding spaces and here I am stuck on 20% of the game because the tall spectre basically instantly hones in on you the moment you enter a quest relevant room. If at least the spectres would have a set patrol path it would be doable, but no, the moment you enter any room they are programmed to instantly follow you in.

Not bad, not great, but if you're looking for a solid VR horror evasion game this fits the bill, featuring some varied, interesting, and tense monsters that don't overstay their welcome and only occasionally gets too annoying.

This game can't be pasued, thats a failure of basic functionality. I still cant figure out whats wrong with the audio and having no pause menu makes it way more tedious to even try to fix. Having to go to a seperate program in my desktop to turn off the game is like having to go inside the house to flip a switch to shut off my cars engine. I should be able to stop the running engine from inside the car.

A decent game I would pay 5-10 bucks for. Apart from some minor bugs with loading levels or when leaving the headset on the ground I see no problems. Good voice acting, interesting story that isn't immediately obvious and even some bold gameplay choices. Played on Index. Kinda reminded me of Hinge VR
