Ascension VR

+ Fun Deck Builder Card Game + Multiplayer + Not too pricey compared to the actual card game IRL - It's a card game in VR. Might as well just play Table Top Simulator. - Not much to do. - No one in multiplayer to play with 2/5 Not enough people to play against, AI are terrible and predictable, and not really enough in game to recommend. Maybe if it was cross platform like the PC version, but not recommendable like this. It's also missing most of the expansions.

Ascension VR is a virtual reality adaptation of the popular Ascension deckbuilding card game that focuses on recreating the feeling of sitting around a tabletop with friends inside a fantasy-themed digital environment. Developed and published by Temple Gates Games, the title takes the strategic foundation of the original tabletop game and places it into an immersive VR space where players physically interact with cards, communicate through voice chat, and compete face-to-face through animated avatars. Rather than reinventing the core mechanics, the game aims to preserve the original experience while adding the social presence and immersion that virtual reality can provide. At the center of the experience is the same highly addictive deckbuilding gameplay that made Ascension popular among tabletop fans. Players begin matches with a basic deck and gradually strengthen it by recruiting heroes, acquiring constructs, and defeating monsters to earn honor points. The constantly rotating center row of cards forces players to adapt strategies on the fly, creating a satisfying balance between planning and improvisation. Every match becomes a competition not only for stronger cards but also …

Terrible. Even simple rules like "You may discard a card in your hand or discard pile" forces you to discard TWO cards.

This was a tough one for me but in the end I can't fully recommend this game. Pros: - Card game in VR Cons: - Only one environment - Little to no replayability after a few games - Dead multiplayer - The VR aspect doesn't add much to just playing normally This game was fun for the first few rounds I played and I even ran into 1 or 2 people in multiplayer. There's no one else that plays and after playing against the computer it really lost its appeal. Sure you can select cards in VR but there's no unique animations or anything else that really adds to the VR experience, it's just a bunch of cards held up in front of your face. There's nothing to unlock and if your game goes on long enough you'll start seeing the same cards over. If there was more of a point to the game such as additional environments, cards to unlock, game variants, high scores, etc. I wouldn't even mind not having multiplayer. There's nothing to unlock and only computers to play against.

love the board game so this is so mutch fun. have been playing it no stop for hours. laptop users should know that u need to make sure your hdmi or divi uses the right graphics card. If u have nivida u can use the nivida control panel- 3D settings change it to high preformance also change the physx to ur nividia graphics card.

Outright inferior to the 2D version of the game. Only includes two sets - the original and War of Shadows - and the interface is not any better than playing the 2D version via Bigscreen or Virtual Desktop, except with some layering errors (where items behind other items are rendered to occlude them anyway). Disables Chaperone for the duration, because it is strictly seated/standing only; your own "body" gets horribly confused if you move around. Ascension is fine, but this is a terrible rendition of it. Buy the 2D version instead.
