We Are One

Cheap garbage made to run on a Meta quest.

We are the forest... we. ARE. ONE!!! Play as a sproutling created by the great forest guardian and defend the forest against the machines using your cunning, problem-solving skills, and... time travel?? (not really time travel, you just start the loop over, basically) Highly recommended for VR puzzle solvers and anyone who likes colorful shooting games.

It’s a great game that offers a few evenings of entertainment - even more. I picked it up as part of the "We Are One The Last Clockwinder" bundle; it was my first time playing a puzzle game of this type. While there are quite a few games with similar concepts out there - though not an overwhelming number - I believe this one stands out as one of the best, if not *the* best, in the genre. The game constantly introduces new elements, becoming more interesting the further you progress, though it does feel a bit short. There are bonus levels that are more challenging than the standard ones; I think these should have been included in the main campaign, and the final level - being the finale, after all - could have been made more difficult. It’s also a pretty good fit for VR beginners, as it teaches you that the world isn't just in front of a screen but all around you - and that you *need* to interact with it. Plus, since you stay in one spot, there’s less motion sickness (though the effect can still be felt to some degree). Of course, there were some issues; this is the first major VR game I've played where the center point constantly resets. the screen occasionally fills with pixel…

Played on Meta Quest 3 via Link cable. No complaints, great for its price! Short game (just under 4h for me) with just-right difficulty to the puzzles (took me a bit of thinking on some of them, but didn't ultimately need a guide). Fundamentally simple, makes it accessible to all players and not a lot of physical strain involved - though do expect to wiggle your head a bit to dodge incoming projectiles. Mother Nature NPC in-game has a pleasant Nana's voice. Good to get alongside The Last Clockwinder (a similar puzzle game) on their discounted combo bundle.

Good game, worth the money!

Great concept and execution. Pretty original in it's own way. I haven't touched the Quest version but the PCVR version is pretty good. Being able to look at your past self after rewinding and expecting your move is pretty cool.
