✦ AI summary

Glaive is a playable VR throwing game with simple graphics that delivers satisfying moment-to-moment combat once you get the hang of the glaive mechanic, though players note it becomes repetitive and one-dimensional with limited weapon variety and no customizable controls. Most reviewers appreciate the low price point and brief campaign length, but opinions diverge sharply on whether the core gameplay loop remains engaging beyond the initial novelty, with some finding it a worthwhile arcade-style experience and others finding it tedious and lacking depth.

Playable and entartaining. Simple but sharp graphics.

While the game works fine, it's repetitive and barely increments on its premise: throw the Glaive. You end up with one tired arm (your other arm is worthless), a twisted up VR headset cable, and very little sense of accomplishment.

Fun game, and so cheap it's hard to pass up! Throwing the glaive takes some skill... but once you get the hang of it, you fall into a monster-slaying rhythm that makes you feel bad ass! Fairly short, I beat it the first time through in half an hour. Medium replay-ability - I don’t see why I wouldn’t come back now and again to slice some fools :)

This game is fun. That much should be known. I can easily see someone paying a dollar to play this game at a VR arcade one time, so the price is beyond great. There are only a few things that I wish were different. For starters, you only get one weapon. In my opinion, having two vive controllers would only make sense to allow the player to have two weapons to fight off the hordes. A simple mistake that takes A LOT away from this title. The controls are a little peculiar, too. The grip button AND the trigger allow you to throw the glaive. This was only a problem to me while I was adjusting my controller grip to better attack the enemies. Making that matter worse, there are no options to adjust this. Actually, there are no settings at all. Apart from these flaws, the game is immersive, creepy and has you checking your six constantly when you hear those creatures approaching. It uses a unique lighting system also that will definitely add to your paranoia when you see something out of the corner of your eye. Steam has me at 0.9 hours of playtime at the time of this review, and I can say without embarassment that I haven't beaten all the levels yet. I highly recommend this title, and it…

It just isn't fun. Cleared two waves of this snore fest... and moved along.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
