About Insanity VR: Last Score
"Insanity": Stranded in the subconsciousness of another person in Virtual Reality.
"One person's craziness is another person's reality"-Tim Burton. In the sense of Tim Burton a group of students from the University of Applied Sciences Salzburg faced the challenge to combine virtual reality technology and the horror genre in one game. On both the artistic and the technical level, the students wanted to break fresh ground and walk new paths. The project will be exhibited with many other student projects at the Creativity Rules Festival in Hallein from June 8th to June 11th 2017.
Concept and Story
The game tells the story of a gray future where, thanks to the latest technology, it is possible to enter another's subconsciousness and treat their psychological problems. During a routine procedure, the player enters the subconscious mind of a former instrument maker. Shortly after the entry he has to realize that things don't go according to plan and that he is locked inside. During the search for a way out, the terrible past of the instrument maker is gradually revealed and the player discovers that he is not alone.
Visual style and new technical possibilities
Aimed at a very simplified and abstract design the team wants to stand out from the mass of hyperrealistic horror games and offer their own distinctive style. On a technical level, the students try to use new and innovative techniques to push the game onto a new level.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
"Insanity VR: Last Score" is one of literally thousands of student projects infesting Steam. It's from University of Applied Sciences in Salzburg. While student projects tend to be better quality than most "amateur" made games, we must still question what value such projects have for gamers. As with all student projects, this isn't really a fully fleshed out game, it's just the result of an academic exercise, and as such it has much more limited value as a game than a professionally developed game would have. Educational institutions should not be using Steam as a dumping ground for homework assignments (especially if the students didn't even pass the course). Sure, it helps their marketing and helps the students feel good about themselves, but this is another case of a business putting themselves before the needs of gamers. This is a basic first person escape-room/adventure game with a "Tim Burton"-esque theme slapped on it. There's a predictable and unenjoyable plot, and equally predictable and unenjoyable gameplay. As a student project, this is unpolished and not really a fully fleshed out game... once more students putting their personal gain over what's good for gamer…2 found this helpful
It's alright, short and sweet free game with corny VA. Wack movement, if you're on valve index you must push in both joysticks and swing your arms.1 found this helpful

Definitely worth playing since it's free. It's not actually scary and you can easily beat it without ever triggering the monster, but it's still an interesting story. Hated the music puzzle (match the notes type puzzle), but people had posted the solution in the Steam discussions, so I just used that.
Just get it. Super scary at some points, Had to take off the VR just to clam down. Awesome with friends watching.
"Insanity VR: Last Score" — захватывающая VR-игра с динамичным геймплеем и напряженными уровнями. Погружение в виртуальную реальность на высоте: реалистичная графика, яркие локации и атмосфера хаоса создают ощущение настоящего хаоса. Управление интуитивное, но требует времени для адаптации. Несмотря на сложность, игра предлагает интересные головоломки и боевые моменты. Однако неидеально — некоторые уровни кажутся излишне запутанными, а технические сбои могут нарушать погружение. Подойдет фанатам VR и экшена, но новичкам стоит пройти обучение. Рекомендую для любителей адреналина и экспериментов с форматом.
